Ybor City Museums
The museum occupies the former Ferlita Bakery (originally La Joven Francesca) building at 1818 9th Avenue. The bakery was known for producing Cuban bread and its ovens are part of the museum displays covering the history of the cigar industry and the Latin community from the 1880s through the 1930s. There is also an ornamental garden in the building (available for rental after regular hours).
Tours of the gardens and the "casitas" (small homes of cigar company workers) are provided by a ranger. Exhibits, period photos and a video cover the founding of Ybor City and the cigar making industry.
