Description

Delight in the elegance and romance of the Steamboat Era! 


Step back in time with a personal tour of the Howard Steamboat Museum and Mansion.  This beautiful mansion was built in 1894 by the Howards of Jeffersonville, Indiana.  The Howards were premier steamboat builders that included the luxurious J.M. White, the fast City of Louisville and the Indiana.


Master craftsmen from the shipyard created much of the decor in the mansion that features original furnishings, brass chandeliers, stained glass windows, and intricate carvings throughout and even a grand staircase. Models, photographs, paintings, half-hull models and other artifacts from the Great Steamboat Era abound at this unique Jeffersonville Museum.

This pass entitles you and your family to a personal tour.  The museum is open year round. Personal, informative tours are offered Tuesday through Saturday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
