The Frank B. Kellogg House is a house in Saint Paul, Minnesota. The house is listed as a National Historic Landmark for its association with Senator Frank B. Kellogg, co-author of the Kellogg-Briand Pact. Kellogg Boulevard in downtown Saint Paul is also named for him.[3]
From 1889 until his death, this was the permanent residence of Frank B. Kellogg (1856-1937), lawyer, U.S. Senator, and diplomat. As Secretary of State (1925-29), he negotiated the Kellogg-Briand Pact (1928), for which he received the Nobel Peace Prize, and shifted foreign policy away from interventionism.[1]
He died in 1937 at home,[4] presumably in this house.
The house was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1976.[1] [5]
