Andalusia
The historic house museum served as the home of famed American author, Flannery O’Connor, as she completed the bulk of her literary work from 1951-1964. The property remained in the family until 2003, when it was gifted to a private foundation. In 2017, Georgia College & State University received the historic farm and continues to welcome the public to learn about Flannery O'Connor's life, literature, and legacy.

With subjects such as Flannery's driving experiences and the property's peafowl, this blog expands upon life at Andalusia not found within our tour's interpretation.
