The Henry B. Plant Museum pays tribute to Henry Bradley Plant (October 27, 1819 – June 23, 1899), a prominent businessman, entrepreneur, and investor known for his significant contributions to transportation, particularly railroads, in the southeastern United States. Plant dreamed of an empire that required a magnificent palace, which became the Tampa Bay Hotel. Today, the museum is situated in the south wing of the original hotel and showcases the exquisite furnishings and artifacts that Mr. and Mrs. Plant collected during their extensive buying trips to Europe and the Orient.
