  This place is so beautiful. My boyfriend and I took the 1:30 tour of the Bush-Holley House with Docent Donna, she is amazing and very knowledgeable. I would recommend taking a tour. This property has so much history. We unfortunately came at a time that they were setting up a new exhibition so the gallery was unavailable but we will be back. 😊

  If you ever wondered why Interstate 95 has a big bend over the water at Cos Cob? If you want to hear more interesting stories about families and circumstances during the Revolutionary War and Civil War? The answers are here at the Busch-Holley House. Well worth the time to learn and see how these two families Iived 300 years ago.

  Exceptional historical museum. Home of the Cos Cob Art Colony and the American Impressionists movement of the 19th century.

  Nice, small but interesting place. A lot of happenings, such as art classes, for the locals, especially the kids. I wish they'd expand their hours a bit, but I realize staff is rather tight for many of these local museums.

Slave Quarters in Bush-Holley House - Connecticut Explored

The use of this wing as slave quarters had long been part of the oral tradition of Bush-Holley House, but it lacked research to substantiate it. The staff's knowledge of the family and people enslaved in the Bush household comes from primary-source evidence in deeds, wills, inventories, and census records. Those records indicate that in 1738 ...
