The Peterson-Dumesnil House is a historic home located in Louisville, Kentucky. Built in 1869, it is a prime example of Italianate architecture and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The house was originally owned by William S. Peterson, a prominent businessman in the city who was involved in the tobacco industry.

The exterior of the Peterson-Dumesnil House features ornate details, including a cornice with brackets, arched windows, and a belvedere on the roof. The interior of the house has been restored to reflect the Victorian era, with period furnishings and decor. The first floor contains a living room, dining room, and parlor, while the second floor has four bedrooms and a sitting room.

In 1926, the house was purchased by the Dumesnil family, who lived in it for over 80 years. The property was eventually sold to the Peterson-Dumesnil House Foundation, which restored it to its former glory and opened it to the public for tours. The house is now used for special events, such as weddings and other celebrations, as well as community gatherings.

The Peterson-Dumesnil House is a beloved landmark in Louisville, offering a glimpse into the city's rich history and architectural heritage. Its beautifully preserved interior and exterior make it a must-see destination for locals and visitors alike.
