Stranahan House Museum, established in 1984, is a historic gem located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. As the oldest surviving structure in Broward County, this beautifully restored house was originally built in 1901 by Frank Stranahan, a founding father of the city, and his wife Ivy, the area's first school teacher. The museum serves not only as a testament to the region’s rich past but also as a vibrant community hub, having functioned historically as a trading post, post office, and social gathering space.

Visitors can explore the house through guided tours that narrate the fascinating history of the Stranahan family and their pivotal role in the development of Fort Lauderdale.
