Cannonball House, History museum in Macon, Georgia, United States.

The Cannonball House stands as a Greek revival building at 856 Mulberry Street, featuring period furnishings and a two-story brick kitchen with servants' quarters.

Built in 1853 as a planter's townhouse for Judge Asa Holt, the residence received its name after a Union Army cannonball struck it during 1864.

The museum contains collections from two national collegiate women's societies: the Adelphean Collection of Alpha Delta Pi and the Philomathean Collection of Phi Mu.

Guided tours lasting forty-five minutes operate Wednesday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 3:30 PM, with the final tour beginning at 3:30 PM.

A bronze cannon from the Macon Arsenal of 1864 stands in the front yard, while the original cannonball damage remains visible on the structure.
