Willard Bunnell House, Gothic Revival house museum in Homer Township, Minnesota.

The Willard Bunnell House features a two-story veranda with unpainted eastern white pine construction and triangle-peaked windows overlooking the Mississippi River.

Built in the 1850s, this residence holds the distinction of being the first permanent house constructed south of Saint Paul in Minnesota territory.

The house displays the architectural preferences of early Minnesota settlers through its board-and-batten design and carved bargeboards from the Ohio Valley influence.

The Winona County Historical Society maintains and operates this historic site, which stands three miles east of Winona along U.S. Route 61.

The structure combines elements of Carpenter Gothic design with flat-roofed rear sections, reflecting building techniques from both northern and southern river valleys.

Location: Homer Township

Architectural style: Carpenter Gothic
