The Conrad-Caldwell House Museum will take visitors back in time to 1893 when famed local architect Arthur Loomis built the house for Theophile Conrad and his wife.

They lived in it for twelve years until it was bought by William E. Caldwell, who made it his family residence for another 35 years.

Since then, the house has been a retirement home, and it is now also a museum maintained by the St. James Court Historic Foundation.

Visitors will love exploring the decor and architecture of the Richardsonian-Romanesque home with its corner towers, elaborately carved fireplaces, high ceilings, stained-glass windows, parquet flooring, and carvings of gargoyles and other animals.

There’s also a massive collection of antiquities and period items within the house as well as stunning garden surrounding it.

Address: Conrad-Caldwell House Museum, 1402 St. James Court, Louisville, KY, 40208, Phone: 502-636-5023
