museum, house, NRHP - National Register of Historic Places, 1860s construction, Italianate style (architecture)
The house was built in 1868-69 and was the home of Enoch Pardee, who was mayor of Oakland as well as serving in the state legislature. His son George Pardee was also a mayor of Oakland, and was later governor of California. George's wife Helen was an active collector, and gathered objects from all over the world. Their daughters Madeline and Helen lived in the house their entire lives, changing very little over the years. The result is an amazing collection of period furniture and artifacts exactly as people lived with them.
