Moorhead’s Comstock House is the 19th century home of the Comstocks, leaders in bringing both the railroad and educational opportunity to northern Minnesota’s Red River Valley. The Victorian home has been restored by the Historical and Cultural Society of Clay County and is furnished with Eastlake and Queen Anne style furniture, tapestries and historical artifacts. Many of the furnishings are original. The home was established as a symbol for growth and prosperity in Moorhead, much of which was the result of Comstock’s efforts in brining business to the area and growing the town. At the time, the 11-room home was the most expensive in the area. The family lived in the home until 1965 when they donated it to the Minnesota Historical Society.
