The Wells'Built Museum is a local African-American history museum located inside the historic Wells'Built hotel in Orlando, Florida.
The museum features 6000 square feet of exhibition areas filled with period furnishings and artifacts. The museum retains the original fa?ade of the old hotel, the original interior decorations including the original interior walls of the era. Other than artifacts from the operations of the hotel like hotel documentation and authentic beddings and room d?cor, the museum also features important items for African-American culture like an original Negro League baseball jersey, photographs, books, and even rare slave records.
By continuing the tradition started by Dr. Wells of service to the African-American people, the Wells?Built museum educates younger generations about the periods of slavery, segregation, and racism.
