Historic Palm Cottage™: Listed On the National Register of Historic Places

At the corner of 12th Avenue South and Gulfshore Boulevard sits an exquisite example of Naples' authentic charm. Under the preservation of the Naples Historical Society, the Palm Cottage™ house museum is the oldest house in Naples (built 1895) and a fine example of Tabbie Mortar construction, a hand-made concrete consisting of sand, shells and water.   The 3,500 square foot house museum is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and features a gift shop offering one of the area's most unique collections of historical books and gifts. Visitors may experience the rustic, hand-crafted charm of Old Naples through guided tours where trained docents share unique insights and colorful tales about this local architectural gem and the community surrounding it.
