About: Louis Armstrong (father of jazz, trumpet player, vocalist, actor, writer, and more) lived in this house from 1943 until his death in 1971. His widow Lucille continued to live in the house until her death in 1983. The house remains exactly as it was during the Armstrongs' years in it.
Today, the Louis Armstrong House Museum is open to the public, offering guided tours of Louis’s longtime home. On the tour, audio clips from Louis’s homemade recordings are played, and visitors hear Louis practicing his trumpet, enjoying a meal, or talking with his friends. Visitors also get to enjoy an exhibit on Louis’s life and legacy, and the Armstrongs’ beautiful Japanese-inspired garden.
