City Map with Features
This house, known as the 'Pink Castle,' was built in stages between 1882 and 1894; the home of US Congressman John and Alice Pickler is representative of a late-19th century prairie Victorian mansion. Alice Pickler, a noted suffragist, hosted Susan B. Anthony in the home in 1890; other guests included Grover Cleveland and Theodore Roosevelt. The mansion's 20 rooms are complete with their original furnishings and include a secret room for shelter during Indian attacks and severe storms, and a music room with hand-carved woodwork. The historic home is open daily for one-hour afternoon tours, Memorial Day through Labor Day.
