It is said that The President’s Hall of Fame has the largest collection of Presidential artifacts in the world. It’s also one of Florida’s oldest remaining original roadside attractions.
The original President’s Hall of Fame was built in Clermont next to the Citrus Tower as a wax museum in the early 60s by Mr. Toole, one of the two original builders of the Clermont Citrus Tower. John and Jan Zweifel (now deceased) took over the building and rebuilt the attraction with thousands of historic artifacts.
Prominently displayed is a unique miniature 60 x 20 foot-wide replica of the White House with the east and west wings, fully furnished with authentic artwork and decorations. Many of the miniatures were beautifully created by John Zweifel.
Pictured are a few of the rooms.
Original replicas are displayed throughout the museum, including former White House china, historic letters, unique photos, and lifelike statues of the Presidents.
Take the time to visit the museum, located at 123 Highway 27 in Clermont, right next to the Citrus Tower. It’s a great place to look, listen, and learn.
