It is located at the intersection of Shiras and Lincoln Avenues,[1] near the entrances to Eagle Point Park and Riverview Park.[3] DescriptionThe house was designed by John F. Rague and built for local businessman and lead miner Mathias Ham in 1857.{{Dubuque County Historical Society|date=July 2015}} Ham had owned an island in the Mississippi River at Dubuque, called Ham's Island (which has since renamed City Island and then Chaplain Schmitt Memorial Island, after Father Aloysius Schmitt).[4] The architect, John F. Rague, who had designed the original state capitol buildings at Springfield, Illinois and at Iowa City, Iowa, designed the house in the Italian Villa style.[1] The Mathias Ham House has been restored and transformed into a museum showcasing life during the Antebellum era; it contains American and European furnishings from that period. The property also features the Louis Arriandeaux Log House, a double log cabin[3] in the dogtrot style, which is considered the oldest building in Iowa. The cabin was built in 1833 at 2nd and Locust Streets in Dubuque, then moved to Eagle Point Park in Dubuque before being moved to the Mathias Ham House Historic Site.[1] Additionally, a one-room schoolhouse (the former Humke School) was relocated to the property. A replica mine shaft and "badger hole" or "badger hut" were constructed on the property to educate the public about Dubuque's lead mining history.{{citation needed|date=July 2015}} MuseumThe museum is operated by the Dubuque County Historical Society, which also operates the National Mississippi River Museum & Aquarium.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web|website=City of Dubuque|url=http://www.cityofdubuque.org/708/Mathias-Ham-House|title=Mathias Ham House}} 2. ^{{NRISref|2009a}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|website=Iowa Beautiful|url=http://www.iowabeautiful.com/east-iowa-tourism/424-mathias-ham-house-dubuque-iowa.html|title=Mathias Ham House, Dubuque, Iowa}} 4. ^{{cite web|website=Encyclopedia Dubuque|url=http://www.encyclopediadubuque.org/index.php?title=CITY_ISLAND|title=City Island}} External links{{Commons category|Mathias Ham House}}
