The Bond House Museum serves as the anchor facility for the town’s Plaza de Espanola, highlighting the transformation of historic Espanola from a frontier outpost into a commercial center. The Native American and Hispanic lifestyles of the people in the area had remained unchanged for over three centuries until 1880 when the railroad came to town. Frank Bond, who came from Canada, established the Espanola Mercantile, invested in land and sheep, and started building the adobe home. The house had expanded to its present day size by 1910, serving as a testament to the new cash economy’s power.
