St. Paul's Irvine Park - Henry Horn House

During a walkabout in the Irvine Park area, near downtown St. Paul, MN, I found this beautifully restored Victorian house.

 

It's the Henry Horn House.

 

The house was built in 1869 for pastor David Riddle Breed and was originally twice as big with a front door facing the river.

 

When Henry Horn acquired the house around 1884, he added the ornately carved woodwork to the exterior and moved the front door from the Mississippi Riverside to face the Irvine Park.
