The Minnesota Hitorical Society descibes the house this way: "Make a call on Anna Ramsey, wife of the first territorial governor, at St. Paul's Ramsey House. Guides dressed as her servants may even surprise you with a tour of the Victorian home and some fresh cookies. Enjoy a glimpse into family and servant life in the 1870s. One of the nation's best preserved Victorian-era homes, the Ramsey House features carved walnut woodwork, marble fireplaces, crystal chandeliers and many original furnishings. Pick up Victorian-era souvenirs in the Carriage House gift shop."

elle est belle cette maison, à l'ombre, tranquille. J'aime bien ces maisons, quand tu fais une grande ballade sous le soleil, tu t'assois à côté de la maison, et cela te repose.
ReplyDeleteOn dirait une maison de campagne
it is beautiful this house, in the shade, quiet. I like these houses, when you make a great ballade under the sun, you assois beside the house, and that puts back you.
One would say a country house
Is it a 3 story house? A beautiful old place. Imagine all the history that took place in that house.
ReplyDeleteLooks really nice! So did you get some coockies?
ReplyDeleteFree cookie? I'd be all over that if I didn't live 2000 miles away.
ReplyDeleteI love how Victorian homes look. They'd kinda look weird in Florida, but I've always loved that style.
I love the ornate detail on Victorians, like the top story - it looks like a slate roof?
ReplyDeleteI've always dreamed of restoring a Victorian...Maybe in my next life ;-)
ReplyDeleteObviously, this one does not need any work...and I love all the shady trees.
I love these beautiful old houses. They have so much history.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if the cookies are any good :)
