Helen Keller Birthplace - Tuscumbia, Al

Tuscumbia, Alabama is the birthplace of Helen Keller!
Alabama became the 22nd State of the Unio in 1819 and the Keller home was built in 1820.
It was originally part of a 640 acre tract. This water tower is actually close to Spring Park.

The main house has four large rooms on the first floor. The actual well-pump where Helen spoke her first words, 'water', is in it's original location. They have many of the original furnishings and a large selection of braille books.
