This beautifully restored wood-frame structure offers visitors an engaging glimpse into the past, with informative tours led by experienced docents. The museum not only preserves the history of the Stranahan family but also highlights the birth and growth of Fort Lauderdale itself, making it a must-see destination for history enthusiasts.
