Wimbish House, historic building in Atlanta, Georgia, USA

Wimbish House is a châteauesque-style clubhouse at 1150 Peachtree Street NE in Atlanta, commissioned in 1898 and completed in 1906. Architect Walter T. Downing designed it after Mrs. Susie Lenora Wimbish saw homes in the south of France. The National Register complex comprises three parts: the Clubhouse, Banquet Hall and Auditorium.

Commissioned in 1898 and finished in 1906, the house was designed by architect Walter T. Downing for Susie Lenora Wimbish, inspired by châteauesque homes she saw in southern France. The Atlanta Woman's Club bought it in 1920 and has owned and operated it since. In 1979 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the Atlanta Women's Club Complex, in three parts: Clubhouse, Banquet Hall and Auditorium.

Wimbish House served as the gathering place for the Atlanta Woman's Club, where women met for discussions, social events, and community service. The building's interior spaces reflect this history of female collaboration and civic involvement in the city.

The building is located in the middle of Midtown at the corner of Peachtree and 14th streets, making it easy to find and reach. Parking is available in the driveway and at a nearby garage, with several hotels within walking distance for visitors who want to stay overnight.

In November 1929, Ralph Peer ran RCA-Victor recording sessions in a building next to the main house, then called the Opera House; the artists included Blind Willie McTell, the Carter Family and Jimmie Rodgers. The main building itself was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979 as the "Atlanta Women's Club Complex", in three parts: Clubhouse, Banquet Hall and Auditorium.
