Tschiener House, building in Alabama, United States
The Tschiener House is a building constructed in 1866 in Mobile, Alabama, featuring Carpenter Gothic style with pointed arches and decorative wooden details. After a fire destroyed the main structure, only a small outbuilding with original Gothic ornamental elements remains on the site located along Old Shell Road.
The structure was built shortly after the Civil War, reflecting the craftsmanship and architectural style of that post-war period in Alabama. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982, recognizing its importance to local history and architecture.
The site is located on Old Shell Road in Mobile and is marked to show where the original structure stood. Visitors can examine the remaining outbuilding and its original details while exploring this historic location.
The structure once carried the alternative name Dumas School, suggesting it may have served as an educational space during its history. This dual-purpose past is less commonly known but documented in historical records.
