The Lavalle House (also known as the Charles Lavalle House) is a historic house located at 203 East Church Street in Pensacola, Florida. Built in 1805,[2] the Charles Lavalle House is part of Historic Pensacola Village, and features a French Creole period style. It is one of the oldest houses in Pensacola and one of the few structures that remain from Spanish Florida.[3]

On March 11, 1971, it was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places for its Gulf Coast architectural style.[3]

History

Charles Lavalle, a builder and property owner, owned the property from 1803 to 1815.[3] In 1854, when Lavalle died, he owned 25 different properties.[4] In 1968, the Historic Pensacola Preservation Board moved the house to prevent its demolition.[3]
