Lydia Pinkham House, Historical mansion in Lynn, United States
The Second Empire residence features a distinctive Mansard roof and stands at 285 Western Avenue as a testament to nineteenth-century architectural design.
The house gained national recognition when Lydia Pinkham produced her medicinal Vegetable Compound in the basement during the late 1870s and early 1880s.
The building has transformed into Lydia Pinkham Labs, providing studio spaces for numerous artists, sculptors, glass blowers, and creative professionals.
Visitors can explore the preserved interior spaces, including the basement where evidence of the original production facilities remains visible through storage areas.
The residence served as both a manufacturing site and correspondence center where Lydia Pinkham personally responded to thousands of letters from women seeking medical advice.
