Arnheim, the home of Dr. John Blair Radford.
Arnheim (Antebellum)
Dr. John Blair Radford, for whom the city was later named, built this house in 1838 on a hill overlooking the New River. The building has since been used as the home for the Radford family and Radford High School's Home Economics department. It is now owned by the Radford Heritage Foundation, which is actively trying to preserve this endangered historical treasure. Interested visitors will have the rare opportunity to see this prominent building up close.
