The
Kennedy Farm is the place where
John Brown planned and began his raid on
Harpers Ferry, West Virginia in 1859. Also known as
John Brown's Headquarters and
Kennedy Farmhouse, the log, stone and brick building has retained its historical integrity and is essentially the same as it was in 1859.
Located at 2406 Chestnut Grove Road, Sharpsburg, Maryland, the house restored by the Maryland Historical Trust and is open for tours by appointment.
