Friends of "R" House ( http://r-house.org/) is a non-profit association located in Mountain View. It was formed to save the historic Rengstorff House, the oldest existing house in Mountain View, now located in Shoreline at Mountain View. The Friends of "R" House conducts educational events and community outreach to promote the awareness of the Rengstorff House, the Rengstorff family, the context of the 19th century, and the history of Mountain View. Friends of "R" House is waiting to welcome new volunteers. We have other ways to get involved - we need people to help chair exhibits and events. Internships are available for the following majors: history, art, anthropology, museum technology, museum studies, and media management. As a Friends of "R" House volunteer, you will not only impact the lives of children, but increase the diversity of our local community.

Mission Statement

The mission of the Friends of "R" House is to contribute to the preservation and public knowledge of the Rengstorff House, the Rengstorff Family, and the history of Mountain View through various activities and events, including community outreach, educational events, and research.

Description

While the Rengstorff House is a wonderful example of architecture in its own right, it is also a prime model of adaptive reuse. Today this beautifully restored historic house museum provides the perfect setting for visitors to acquaint themselves with the attributes of the 19 th century. The Friends of "R" House invite you come to the Rengstorff House and experience one of a kind exhibits, living history programs, memorable holiday events, and much more.

Find us on Facebook and check our calendar often so you are assured not to miss a thing. Complimentary docent tours are held throughout the year on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays and are given by Mountain View Parks and Recreation docent volunteers. Tour times are subject to change without notice. Donations are always welcome and proceeds go to the Friends of "R" House to further our educational mission. The Rengstorff House is located inside picturesque Shoreline at Mountain View.
