A tourism Web site has issued its "Five Must-See Sights for Edgar Allan Poe Fans" in the United States.

VirtualTourist.com said the Poe Museum in Richmond, Va., is a can't-miss attraction for fans of the 19th century writer as it houses his walking stick, a lock of his hair, his boyhood bed and other memorabilia. The museum also offers its garden for weddings.

Mentioned second on the California tourism Web site's list is the Baltimore Poe House and Museum in Maryland, a two-story residence where Poe is believed to have completed at least nine stories and eight poems.

Third on the list is Poe's House in New York's Bronx borough, where the writer moved with his wife while she was suffering from tuberculosis. The Web site said the home was moved to its current position in a park during the 20th century when it was threatened with demolition.

The Edgar Allan Poe National Historical Site in Philadelphia, where Poe lived with his family and is said to have written his short story "The Black Cat," is No. 4 on the list. The location is a favorite meeting and event location for Philadelphia's Friends of Poe.

Completing the list is Edgar Allan Poe Square in Boston, the city of Poe's birth. The square was dedicated to Poe in April.
