Billy Sunday Home
Source

The Billy Sunday Home, located in the Winona Lake Historic District in Kosciusko County, Indiana, was the residence of William A (Billy) Sunday, Helen (Ma) Sunday, their four children, and the family's live-in housekeeper and nanny. This home is a prime example of a bungalow built in the Arts and Crafts architectural style, showcasing the typical features of the Arts and Crafts Movement.

Creation of the Billy Sunday Museum and Visitor's Center

With the creation of the Village at Winona and the renaissance of the Winona Lake Historic District, a professional curator was hired to oversee the restoration of the home. A new Billy Sunday museum and visitor's center was also curated, which was built near the Sunday property and opened in 2000.

Current Curator and Tours of the Billy Sunday Home

Currently, the Billy Sunday Home is curated by the Winona History Center at Grace College. The center also offers tours of the home, providing visitors with a chance to explore the historic residence.
