The Timothy Edward Collins Mansion is a historic home in Great Falls, Montana, United States. The mansion was built in 1891 by Timothy Collins, a local businessman who traveled to Montana following the gold rush. It was one of Great Falls' first homes built on the west side of the Missouri River.[2] The brick home, now covered in a stucco facade from the 1960s, is of Edwardian and Norman Shaw Queen Anne styles and is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[3] Despite the now hidden brick facade, much of the original, exterior, Victorian details remain today untouched. The Collins Mansion contains quarter sawn oak, maple, cherry, birch, and eastern pine woodwork throughout.[4]
