Eureka's most historic Victorian home, Penn Castle, has as colorful a past as the town itself. Built in 1888 for evangelist Major William Evander Penn, Penn Castle was inspired by Penn's travels to Europe. The home and its religious themed stained glass windows in the parlor were featured on the HGTV program If Walls Could Talk. The home is built of limestone and boasts some of the most well preserved millwork of the time including ornate fireplace mantels and other unique architectural details.
