The Bishop's Palace, also known as Gresham's Castle, is an ornate Victorian-style house at Broadway and 14th Street in Galveston's East End Historic District, Texas. Nicholas J. Clayton designed it for Walter Gresham, and it was completed in 1892. The Archdiocese of Galveston later used it as headquarters for four decades before opening it for tours. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark.
