United States historic place From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Capt. Alexander A. Arnold Farm is located in Galesville, Wisconsin, USA, near U.S. Route 53 across from Gale-Ettrick-Trempealeau High School at 19408 Silver Creek Road.[1] The farm once belonged to the Speaker of the Assembly and State Senator Alexander Ahab Arnold. He designed and built the farm with Samuel Luce.[1] Arnold used the farm to raise shorthorn cattle.[2] At the time, the 400-acre (160 ha) lot held a two-story farmhouse with 15 rooms and a New York-style barn.[1] The farmhouse is a brick structure.[3] It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[4]
