The Haas-Lilienthal House in San Francisco is a stunning example of American Victorian-era architecture that has stood the test of time. Built in 1886 for William and Bertha Haas, the house was occupied by three generations from 1886 until 1972.
The house was designed by Bavarian architect Peter R. Schmidt and constructed by contractors McCann and Biddell. The 11,500-square-foot mansion embodies the ambitious spirit of San Francisco’s pioneers and its grand Victorian-period architecture.
