The Wolfson House is an excellent example of late Victorian architecture. Built in 1888-1889 as residence by a leading post-Civil War San Antonio merchant, Saul Wolfson (1830-1923).
Constructed of brick with quoined stone corners, ornate carved stone pediments. Lavish interiors have Moorish light fixtures; marble mantelpieces in the parlors and dining room; inlaid paneling in the wainscots; parquet floors; and fireplaces in all rooms except the kitchen.
