Haworth was the home of the Bronte sisters. Their father was the parson at Haworth church so they wrote most of their books at the Haworth Parsonage, now the Bronte Museum. Haworth is also noted for the many footpaths that lead out from the village to explore the surroundings.
Set out upon the edge of the moor in Haworth is the parsonage of the Bronte family, founded in 1820 by Patrick Bronte. The school is best known for being home to Charlotte, Emily and Anne Bronte, during the writing of 'Jane Eyre', 'Wuthering Heights' and 'Agnes Grey'.
The parsonage in Haworth has been turned into a museum that gives a brief history of the Bronte family and includes a collection of Bronte work.
