The Williams-Gierth House, also known as The Castle House, is a large 2½-story Shingle Style dwelling built in 1892 in Poplar Bluff, Missouri. The irregular-plan residence features a reconstructed wraparound porch, two turrets, and a hipped roof topped with a polygonal dormer, giving it a castle-like appearance. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012, it exemplifies the picturesque residential architecture characteristic of the late nineteenth-century Shingle Style movement.
