The Rice-Semple-Haardt House is a historic house in Montgomery, Alabama, U.S..
The house was built in the early 1850s for Samuel Farrow Rice, who served as a member of the Alabama House of Representatives and the Alabama Senate, and later as Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court.[1]
In the late 1860s, the house was purchased by Henry Churchill Semple, a veteran of the Confederate States Army.[1] The house remained in the Semple family until 1924.[1] It was later acquired by John Haardt, a realtor, and used as offices.[1]
By 1970, it was purchased by the state of Alabama.[1]
It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since September 27, 1972.[2]
