PIERRE MENARD HOME Old Kaskaskia, Illinois

This house was constructed ca. 1814 by Pierre Menard, one of Illinois most prominant citizens of the colonial and early American period. I was asked to assist in determining the original construction date and layout of the house. I produced a Historic Structures Report in 1998.

Magnolia Mound was built ca. 1780-90 and stands today as one of the few remaining houses from the Spanish colonial period. The home is represented as you see it here from the 1820 period remodeling.
