The Bielenberg Historic Pullman House Foundation is a non-profit organization located in Homewood, Illinois, dedicated to preserving and promoting the history of the Pullman community. The foundation operates out of the historic Bielenberg House, which was built in 1880 by the Pullman Palace Car Company for one of its superintendents. The house has since become a landmark of the community and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The foundation's mission is to educate the public about the history of Pullman, a planned community founded in the late 19th century by industrialist George Pullman. Pullman was known for its innovative design, which included spacious homes, landscaped parks, and modern amenities such as electricity and indoor plumbing. The community also had a unique relationship between workers and management, which was the subject of a famous strike in 1894.

The Bielenberg House serves as a museum, showcasing the history of Pullman and the surrounding area through exhibits and artifacts. The foundation also offers educational programs for school groups and hosts events throughout the year, including the popular Pullman House Tour in October. Through its efforts, the Bielenberg Historic Pullman House Foundation is preserving an important piece of American history and ensuring that future generations will continue to learn from it.
