Description
The House on the Rock is a tourist attraction opened in 1959, and is a complex of architecturally distinct rooms, streets, gardens, and shops designed by Alex Jordan Jr.
The 'house' itself is atop Deer Shelter Rock, a column of rock approximately 60 by 70 feet by 200 feet on the top, which stands in a forest nearby. It currently features 'The Streets of Yesterday', a re-creation of an early twentieth century American town; 'The Heritage of the Sea', featuring nautical exhibits and a 200-foot model of a fanciful sperm whale-like sea creature; 'The Music of Yesterday', a huge collection of automatic music machines among other attractions.
