John C. Flanagan House Museum, Federal style house museum in Peoria, United States.
The two-story brick residence features local walnut timber, limestone from Kickapoo Valley, and materials transported from Chicago for its construction.

The museum displays nineteenth-century collections of antique glass, china, furniture, toys, quilts, tools, and clothing that reflect domestic life.
