Cayetano Juárez Adobe

The Cayetano Juárez Adobe, known as the Old Adobe, is the oldest building in Napa, California, built in 1845 by early settler Cayetano Juárez. Originally a family home, it has transformed into a vibrant Mexican restaurant, La Cheve, after extensive restoration completed in 2019. This historic adobe structure showcases traditional California architecture with thick adobe walls and wooden beams, reflecting the region's rich cultural heritage. Juárez, a prominent figure in Napa's early history, raised his family here and hosted community events. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is located near the scenic Silverado Trail, making it a notable stop for tourists and researchers interested in California's history.
