Good morning!

Some people call this
the strangest home in America.
Welcome to Korner's Folly
"The problem is that the people with the most ridiculous of ideas
are always the people who are most certain of them."
Bill Maher
Although, with Jule's ridiculous idea, something incredibly peculiar was born.
(and believe me when I say he once stabled horses inside, before he married Polly)
For a real live tour of inside the mansion, stories, and a most important final secret at the very end of this video view it here.
You'll be totally amazed.
Built in 1880 by Jule Gilmer Korner
Korner's Folly contains "Cupids Park"which the museum says is the oldest
private theater in America. Created by Jule and Polly Alice Korner and used by
local theatrical groups and by Korner's Folly Foundation for a puppet show.
