Pillot
House
Built in 1868 by Eugene Pillot, this house was occupied
continuously by the Pillot family until 1964. The family gave the house to
the park in 1965. The mid-Victorian structure features significant
innovations, including its kitchen which is believed to have been one of
the first attached kitchens in Houston.

In 2001,
the 1868
Pillot
House was
severely damaged by Tropical Storm Allison. Over the past four years, The
Heritage Society has focused on restoring the house and safeguarding it
from future floods. Now that the exterior restoration is nearly complete,
THS turns its attention to the interior. Flood damage
to
the
interior and the furnishing was extensive and funds are still needed to
complete
the project. Please help us to make the Pillot House just as magnificent
as it was before! Any contribution will be greatly appreciated and is tax
deductible to the extent allowed by law.
