George Caleb Bingham House
George Caleb Bingham House, National Historic Landmark residence in Arrow Rock, United States.
The George Caleb Bingham House is a single-story brick building with a three-section front facade and side gable roof that reflects early 19th-century design. The structure displays the straightforward, sturdy construction typical of residential homes in this period.
The building was constructed in 1837 and served as the residence of painter George Caleb Bingham until 1845. It underwent major changes in the later 1800s before being restored to its original form in 1934.
The house reflects Bingham's role as an artist who captured frontier life through his work and connected with the community around him. The spaces show how a painter lived and worked in this small river town during the 1800s.
The house is part of Arrow Rock State Historic Site located at the intersection of 1st and High Streets. Visitors can tour the building, and it is recommended to check current visiting hours before planning a visit.
A notable aspect of the building's history is that a second story was added in 1870, significantly altering its appearance. Restorers in the 20th century removed these additions to return it to its original form.
