Attraction Information

Available as part of the 7-Building Tour conducted by the Willa Cather Foundation. Call 402-746-2653 or go to willacather.org for more information. 

Built in 1878, the Harling/Miner house is one of the finest historic homes in Red Cloud. Although a more simplified, vernacular interpretation of the Italianate style, the house is the best example of the style in Red Cloud. Willa Cather's first playmate in Red Cloud was Mary Miner. Cather became friends with all of the Miner children, but especially Carrie. She wrote to Carrie regularly throughout her life, and her book My Ántonia is dedicated "To Carrie and Irene Miner, In memory of affections old and true."
