Longfellow's Wayside Inn |
Longfellow's Wayside Inn in Sudbury, Massachusetts is
the setting of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's Tales of a Wayside Inn first
published in 1863. Located off Route 20 (Old Boston Post Road) in
Sudbury, Massachusetts, the inn once known as The Red Horse Tavern has
been operating for nearly three centuries. Longfellow's Wayside Inn is the oldest inn
in the United States that is still in business.

This bust of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow presides over Longfellow's Wayside Inn's gardens. It is a replica of the one that stands in the Poet's Corner of Westminster Abbey. Longfellow holds the distinction of being the first American poet whose bust was installed in the Poet's Corner.
