关于 井'Built Museum of African American History and Culture:

井'Built Museum of African American History and Culture, formerly known as the 井'Built Hotel, was built by Dr. William Monroe Wells in 1929. 最初, 井'Built served as a haven for African Americans during an era of segregation when accommodations were scarce. 现在, 2001年重新开业后, the historic institution allows visitors to immerse themselves in the stories, 工件, and heritage that have shaped Orlando’s diverse and dynamic past. The Wells'Built Museum stands as a testament to the perseverance of Orlando's African American community, making it an ideal destination for cultural exploration throughout the year.
