Fodor's Expert Review The Amelia Earhart Birthplace Museum
Atchison
Museum/Gallery
Owned by the International Ninety-Nines Inc., a group of female pilots, Amelia Earhart's childhood home displays treasures celebrating her aviation career. Earhart was born in this wood-frame Gothic Revival cottage in 1897, a period reflected in the interior style and replica furnishings. There is also a lot of flying memorabilia and, in the butler's pantry, maps depicting theories about Earhart's ill-fated final flight.
