The story of the family is very impressive and the interior of the house was a work of art being ahead of its time. Wish the area put more focus on it as it was so instrumental to the surrounding area.

Unfortunately we were not able to go in the Kell house this day because they are currently closed due to covid. No one was on the property, but we did manage to take a few photos outside(I would post photos, but they have family members I them ).

Wonderful history museum of one of the Founding Fathers of Wichita Falls, Frank Kell. If you love all things history, or dont know what it means to Think like Kemp and work like Kell, then you should make plans to visit soon!

I love historical houses, especially when the docents are eager to impart wonderful information about the house and its owners. The Kell House is a beautiful place to visit. The ladies joked that I now more more about Wichita Falls than most of its townspeople. Worth the visit.
