Zalud House, Historic house museum in Porterville, United States.
The Zalud House features a mansard roof with decorated dormer windows, tall double-hung sash windows, and extensive wooden ornamentation throughout the structure.
John Zalud, an immigrant from Bohemia, constructed this Second Empire style residence in 1891, marking the beginning of his family's presence in Porterville.
The museum maintains all original furnishings from the Zalud family, including a bullet-marked rocking chair connected to William Brooke's 1917 shooting.
Located at 393 N. Hockett Street, the museum opens Thursday through Saturday from 10 AM to 4 PM, with admission prices of $3 for adults and $1 for children.
This Second Empire mansion stands as the sole example of its architectural style in Porterville, preserving its original 1891 structure without modifications.
