Johann and Anna Heidgen House

The Johann and Anna Heidgen House, located in San Antonio, Texas, is a historic two-story structure built around 1882 from native limestone and caliche blocks. Recognized as a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this house has served various purposes over the years, including a residence, youth organization facility, and wedding venue. Its historical significance is enhanced by its connection to the 18th-century Acequia Madre de Valero irrigation system. Originally built by German immigrant Johann Heidgen, the house has changed hands multiple times and underwent significant restoration in the 1970s. Today, it operates as an attorney's office, offering a glimpse into the rich history of San Antonio just three blocks from the iconic Alamo.
