About this event

Admission to Keats House is included with a ticket to this event.

After Keats's death, the Brawne family continued to live in the house, and Keats's sister Fanny and her husband also came to live here. But by the early 1830s both families had left, and the house's connection with Keats was lost. Find out how the house was rediscovered, how it was threatened with destruction, and how it was saved and opened to the public in 1925 as a memorial to Keats.
