Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontė, were the authors of some of the greatest books in the English language. Haworth Parsonage was their much loved home and Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall were all written here. Set between the village of Haworth and the wild moorland beyond, this Georgian house still retains the atmosphere of the Brontės time. The rooms they used are filled with their furniture, clothes and personal possessions. Here you can marvel at the handwriting in their tiny manuscript books, admire Charlotte's wedding bonnet and imagine meeting Emily's pets from her wonderfully lifelike drawings.
