The Mathewson–Gerecke House in Norfolk, Nebraska is a two-story Queen Anne-style residence built in 1884. The house was remodeled around 1925, when a sunroom was added to the east side and the front and rear porches were replaced with Classical porticos. Originally the home of Charles Payson Mathewson, a prominent figure who served as speaker of the Nebraska House and as a bank president before fleeing amid a financial scandal, the house later belonged to Herman Gerecke. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012.
