The Arkansas home that Johnny Cash lived in as a boy with his family from 1935 to 1954 was part of the Dyess Colony — an agricultural resettlement community created by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in the post-Great Depression New Deal era. The home is furnished as it was when young Johnny was there. Fans will appreciate seeing the place that helped inspire some of his iconic songs, including “Pickin’ Time” and “Five Feet High and Rising.”

\n

In 2011, Arkansas State University acquired the home, with restorations completed thanks to proceeds from the Johnny Cash Music Festival.

When Sigmund Freud and his family escaped Austria following the Nazi annexation in 1938, they lived in a home in Hampstead, London, where they stayed until youngest daughter Anna died in 1982. Anna's wish was to honor her father by converting the family's home into a museum.

\n

Her wish was granted, and today the home holds many valuable and memorable items. The most famous piece is Freud's psychoanalytic couch, which his wife Martha said was given to him by a patient. The couch is covered with a colorful Iranian rug, and is where all of his patients reclined on chenille cushions.

We recommend an interactive iPad tour hosted by actor John Stamos, known for his classic impersonations of The King while playing Uncle Jesse on “Full House.” Before you leave, don't forget to pay your respects in the Meditation Garden, where Elvis is laid to rest.

Handel & Hendrix in London is comprised of two Brook Street residences: one where British composer George Frideric Handel lived, and one— next door— where rock god Jimi Hendrix lived. Handel lived and composed at the Georgian-style home for 36 years, dying in his bed in 1759. Hendrix lived at his abode in the late 1960s with his girlfriend Kathy Etchingham, who furnished the home.

\n

Tours of the property give visitors a look at four restored rooms in Handel's home, including his bedroom and dining room, where he would perform informal recitals for friends. A visit to Hendrix's home includes a tour of the main room of the flat, where he rehearsed, entertained, wrote music and gave press interviews.

As a Jewish girl living in Nazi Germany in the 1940s, Anne Frank documented her life in hiding — and left a record that has educated millions on one of the greatest atrocities in human history. She, along with her sister Margot, died at a concentration camp; of her family, only her father survived. After finding Anne's diary, he pushed to get it published, and it has since been translated into over 60 languages.

The Anne Frank Museum in Amsterdam maintains the infamous Secret Annex where Anne and others — \"the hidden eight\" — were concealed from the Nazis. Because all of the furniture was removed during the German occupation, every room in the Secret Annex is empty. But Anne's original diary entries and other items that belonged to the eight people who went into hiding are on display.

Edwin Lascelles started building England's Harewood House in 1759. He enlisted the help of architect John Carr, interior designer Robert Adam, furniture maker Thomas Chippendale and landscape gardener Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown to bring his vision to life. It was through this project that Chippendale, England’s most popular furniture maker, received the largest commission of his career.

In Mexico City, art lovers can visit The Blue House. Also known as Casa Azul, this is the home where renowned Mexican artist Frida Kahlo grew up and lived with her husband until her death in 1954. Now a museum, the house is located in one of Mexico City's oldest neighborhoods.

\n

Inside the home (which is called The Blue House because of its bright cobalt walls) are some of Kahlo's most famous works, such as Portrait of My Father Wilhelm Kahlo and Frida and the Caesarian Operation. There are also displays of her colorful clothing, paper mache Judas skeletons hanging from the ceiling and her art studio.

During the mid-19th century, Charles Dickens lived in a Victorian home in London with his wife, Catherine, and three of their 10 children. It was during this time that he wrote several of his masterpieces, such as \"Oliver Twist\" and \"The Pickwick Papers.\" Dickens and Catherine hosted many dinner parties in this home, which today displays remnants of the couple's life and Dickens' career.

The author's study is at the center of the house but guests can also explore the family bed chambers and the servant's quarters. Among significant objects in the museum are Catherine's engagement ring, handwritten drafts from Charles' novels, family portraits and the court suit that Dickens wore in 1870 when he was presented to the Prince of Wales.

Although he was born Samuel Clemens, the world knew him as Mark Twain. He married Olivia \"Livy\" in 1870 and lived with her and their daughters from 1874 to 1891 in the Hartford, Connecticut home that is now.

\n

In 1873, the couple hired New York architect Edward Tuckerman Potter to design the Victorian Gothic home according to their specifications. Livy was very particular about what she wanted, drawing sketches for Potter and getting feedback from friends. The family finally moved into the house in 1874.

\n

Twain was noted as saying upon the home's completion, “It is a home – and the word never had so much meaning before.” National Geographic even named it \"one of the 10 best historic homes in the world.\"

For the last three years of his life, Leonardo da Vinci lived in Château du Clos Lucé in France, after an invitation by King Francis I to live and work in the home.

\n

The King's Chateau Amboise was not far from Château du Clos Lucé. In fact, there was an underground passage between the two properties that allowed the men to meet as needed. Only the first two meters are still visible today. Da Vinci worked on several projects for King Francis I, until he passed away in his bed chamber in 1519.

Two historic houses make up the Emily Dickinson Museum: The Homestead and The Evergreens. The first was where Emily Dickinson was born. The second was where her brother lived (next door) with his family. It is likely that The Homestead was the first brick house in Amherst, Mass., which was built for the poet's grandparents in 1813. During her lifetime, Dickinson wrote nearly 1,800 poems and letters. It wasn't until her death in 1886 that her works started to be read and published by the public.

\n

Inside the museum, visitors will find plenty to explore. Between The Homestead and The Evergreens, there are over 8,000 objects with historical and cultural relevance. The Evergreens is fully furnished with original furniture and artwork, some of which belonged to Austin Dickinson and his family, and some that likely came from the former Homestead.

The home is decorated to reflect the styles of the 1930s, taking guests through rooms like the library, the sitting room, the dining room and the study. It is full of items and gifts, including original pieces that Churchill and his family kept at the home.

Themed highlights tours, which are one hour long, give visitors exclusive access to Winston's bedroom and other select rooms in the house.

On the Isle of Wight in the United Kingdom sits Osborne House. It was originally built between 1845 and 1851 for Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.

\n

One of the home's best features is that it offers panoramic views of the Solent straight. It is said that these views reminded Prince Albert of the Bay of Naples. But the architecture doesn't disappoint either. The Italian style home has terraces connected by flights of stairs and is divided into four connecting blocks that surround two outdoor courtyards.

\n

Inside the home are personal items that reflect the royal couple's tastes and interests. Some of these include gifts that Victoria and Albert gave to one another on holidays. Other items visitors will come across during their visit are mid-19th century art collections.

The mighty and feisty Molly Brown is famous for not going down with the ship. One of the survivors of the Titanic disaster, the wealthy socialite and philanthropist became known as \"The Unsinkable Molly Brown.\"

\n

Her Victorian home in Denver's Capitol Hill neighborhood was built in the late 1880s, well before her fateful sail. As did other homes in the neighborhood, it contained indoor plumbing, electricity, heating and a telephone — all signs of wealth for the time. Molly moved in in 1894, although during her world travels rented it to the Colorado governor for a spell.

The home almost didn't make it until it, too, was rescued. In 1970, Historic Denver purchased the home and transformed it into a museum. Visitors can see it in all of its original splendor.

The 24,000-square-foot house located in San Jose, California, is clouded with mystery. Home to the Winchester family — the family that created Winchester firearms — it was originally a small home purchased by Sarah Winchester when she relocated to the area after losing her husband and daughter. A medium told Sarah she would always be haunted by the dead killed from the family's firearms and that in order to keep the spirits at bay she would have to continue to build her home to confuse them.

\n

Sarah had construction on her home going 24 hours a day for 38 years. When she died, the Winchester House featured 160 bedrooms, 13 bathrooms, 2,000 doors (some to nowhere), 10,000 windows, 40 staircases (some to nowhere), 47 fireplaces and a seance room.

\n

Tours include the interior or the gardens with visitors walking more than a mile within the house alone.

Named for the first James Bond novel Ian Fleming published, Goldeneye is the 15-acre estate that the author built in Jamaica in 1946.

\n

Fleming designed the home that is perched on a cliff overlooking the ocean and a private beach. From here, he wrote additional Bond novels, including Casino Royale. In fact, Fleming credits living in paradise for the inspiration of additional books.

\n

Today, the property is a resort with the same name, and Fleming's own home is available as a villa. Up to 10 can stay in the private villa, staffed with your own housekeeper, butler and chef.

The 1930 painting, \"American Gothic,\" by Grant Wood is one of the most famous works of art by an American painter. In the painting, a farmer and his wife stand in front of a white house with a Gothic window.

\n

The house was an actual house Wood spotted while visiting a small town in Iowa. Inspired by it, he sketched it to use later in his work. His sister, Nan, modeled as the woman in his painting.

\n

The small house, on the National Register of Historic Places, is available for tours on the second Saturday of the month between April and October, and can be found in Eldon, Iowa.

\"Anne of Green Gables\" is a beloved story, and today, Green Gables Heritage Place welcomes visitors enchanted by the red-headed orphan with a variety of sites and activities.

Just outside of Providence, Rhode Island, the small town of Fall River, Massachusetts, was shaken to the core when Andrew and Abby Borden were found dead in their home on Aug. 4, 1892.

\n

No one is quite certain who committed the ghastly crime, but many say it was the Borden's daughter, Lizzie. A rhyme continues to this day: \"Lizzie Borden took an axe and gave her mother 40 whacks. When she saw what she had done, she gave her father 41.\"

You can visit Sunnyside (so very opposite by name in his scary stories) where Irving wrote his stories that also included “Rip Van Winkle.”

The cottage is a mix of Dutch Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival and Scottish Gothic and has been a National Historic Landmark since 1962.

While Versailles itself is a palace to be seen, we think a visit to Le Hameau de La Reine (the Hamlet of the Queen) gives you more insight into Marie Antoinette. Built as part of the Estate of Trianon on the grounds of the palace by her husband, King Louis IV, Marie Antoinette was given the home for her privacy and to host her friends.

\n

The Queen's House was originally meant to be a temporary structure but was restored and decorated in the style of the furnishings of the queen.

When the Kaufmann family of Pittsburgh asked legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright to build them a house at Bear Run, Pennsylvania, their intention was to be able to look upon the waterfall when visiting their vacation home. Wright took it a step further and built the house into the waterfall.

\n

Using stones from the river and blending the architecture into the environment, even the interior is made with rock and wood to allow the water to flow through. So invested in the design was Wright, he even designed built-in furnishings so the Kaufmanns couldn't alter the aesthetics he created.

\n

The home, aptly called Fallingwater, is considered an architectural masterpiece.

Acclaimed author Ernest Hemingway famously spent his later years in Key West, Florida. Choosing a mid-19th century Spanish Colonial home for himself and his wife, Pauline, to reside in from 1931 and 1940, the home today is one of the biggest attractions on the small island.

More than 40 cats still call the house and gardens home, and they are direct descendants of Hemingway's cats, some of which are six-toed.
