The Heritage House Victorian Museum is a historic Victorian-era building situated in Central Park in Rochester Minnesota. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it was built by successful grain merchant Timothy A. Whiting in 1875 in the Italianate style. It was saved from demolition in 1972 by Louise Hill and was relocated to the park and was restored to look like a house of a typical Victorian middle class family. It contains antique furniture, dolls, quilts, and china; the house also features a garden.
