William Allen White House, Historic residence and museum in Emporia, United States
The stone house features Tudor Revival architecture with red sandstone on the first floor and stucco-and-half-timbered details on upper levels.
The residence, built in 1889, served as home to Pulitzer Prize winner William Allen White from 1899 until 1944 and welcomed five American presidents.
The William Allen White House presents original furnishings and decorative elements that reflect the lifestyle of this influential newspaper editor and political figure.
