Wenzil Taylor Building
The Wenzil Taylor Building is a historic building located in Spillville, Iowa, United States. Wenzil Taylor had this building constructed in 1871 for use as a general merchandise store. It is located in the town's original commercial district, and it is the last remaining commercial
structure from that era.
The two-story structure has side and rear walls of rubble limestone with a brick facade. The decorative elements of the Italianate style building features brick arches with dressed limestone keystones, recessed brick panels, and brick pilasters. The bracketed cornice on the top is a recreation added during the building's restoration in the 1980s.
It continued to house a merchandise store for most of its history, and was used as a residence before it was abandoned. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979. After its restoration in the 1980s, it became a restaurant and inn.
