The Edgar Allan Poe National Historic Site is a preserved home once rented by American author Edgar Allan Poe. Of the many homes in which Poe lived during his six years in Philadelphia, it is the only one which still survives. The picture is a statue outside of the home which depicts a raven, representative of the poem, "The Raven."
