The exquisite Fallon House was built in 1855 by one of San Jose’s earliest mayors. The Victorian mansion showcases 15 fully furnished rooms typical of the Victorian period. Learn about Thomas Fallon, a frontiersman in the John C. Fremont expedition, and Carmel Fallon, the daughter of one of the most prominent Mexican landowners in California.
The Peralta Adobe – Fallon House Historic Site is currently unavailable for public tours
due to construction of the San Pedro Square Market.

Tours are expected to resume in late April 2011.
