Inn Details
There are still those in the region who recall the vivacity of the Shlenker House in the Roaring Twenties. That period of devil-may-care attitudes, it is said, suited the house particularly well, and it was then that the place was a lively center of social activity and the setting for some of the era's most memorable mid-Mississippi occasions.
One Vicksburg matron insisted that, because of the leaded glass that is a favored feature of the Cherry Street facade, the interior lights were "magnified in their magic" and the house, when fully lighted, was regarded by many as a landmark from which directions were taken and given in this historic residential center of Vicksburg.
A unique house in a unique architectural city, Shlenker House reflects a pure modified example of the Prairie school of architecture made famous by Frank Lloyd Wright.
It was, in fact, that element that caught the collective eye for detail of the National Register of Historic Places, as well as the selection board that declared the house a Mississippi Landmark.
