Shiloh House, Historic mansion in Zion, United States.

The Shiloh House, constructed in 1903, features twenty-five rooms and combines Queen Anne architecture with Swiss chalet design elements throughout the structure.

Dr. John Alexander Dowie, who founded the city of Zion, commissioned architect Paul Burkhardt from Chicago to design this residence where he lived until 1907.

The mansion represents early twentieth-century residential architecture and stands as a testament to the establishment of Zion as a planned community.

Located at 1300 Shiloh Boulevard, visitors can explore the historical residence by contacting the Zion Historical Society at 847-872-4566 for tour arrangements.

The property spans 0.8 acres and functioned as the Great Lakes Bible Institute for twelve years before becoming the headquarters of the Zion Historical Society in 1967.
