Andalusia: the Home of Flannery O'Connor - Museum in Milledgeville - 2628 N Columbia St, USA

Very nice tour and a great throw back in time of a working farm. Tours ($7) start on the hour are of the house, but be sure to look through the houses/buildings on the property. Interior furnishings are almost all original and leave chills in you when to tour the home. Our guide was excellent and southern friendly. If you are up for it there is a nice walking trail to experiance. A little gift shop in the back where the tours start also has a wide selection of her books. Check website for hours. Well worth the trip to visit.... a true hidden gem.

2pm tour on Sunday. It took about 30mins to walk around the whole house with the tour guide. As a fan of Flannery O’Conner, It was meaningful to see where and how she lived. Also there is a hiking trail next to it.

Nice tour of the house and self guided tour of the grounds. We also saw special exhibit of typewriters of famous people (see pix for details).

Andalusia is one of the remaining places in Milledgeville that captures the sacred nature of the area. As Milledgeville gets more and more commercialized, Andalusia is a good place to go to forget that no one in Milledgeville knows how to drive. Flannery O'Connor wrote amazing short stories about the beauty and darkness of life while living here and I can't tell if she is the reason Grace seems to hang off every tree branch, or if the charged nature of the air is what caused her to find redemption in even the deepest kinds of pain. Whichever it is, Andalusia is a resting place for the weary soul. Whether you go just to walk around the little hiking trail or you specifically set out to honor the greatest writer of the 20th century, Andalusia is the best detox for when you feel like your heart is covered in a thick layer of grit from the world around you.

Much great restoration work has gone into this homestead of Flannery O’Connor. The tour includes a visit to the downstairs parts of the house, complete with stories about Flannery and her mother. Many of the artifacts are original. Watch Robert Barron’s Pivotal Players spot on her before you go!

I enjoyed touring Andalusia - a lovely home that has been restored so that we can imagine what it was like to live and write here almost 50 years ago.

Lovely place, we sat in her yard and listened to a recording of Her reading "A Good Man is Hard to Find." and it felt appropriate.

A beautiful property and well worth the visit if you are a book lover. Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and answered my many questions as she showed us the house. It was really fascinating to see Flannery O’Connor’s home and where she wrote her greatest works. You can walk the grounds, visit the peacocks, and check out the other structures on the property as well. Tours start on the hour every hour from open to close. I really enjoyed my visit and am so glad that GCSU is taking such good care of the property and ensuring it’s preserved for future generations.
