Rucker Place is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
Built in 1900 by Civil War General Edmund Winchester Rucker as a
wedding gift for his daughter. The family lived in the home for 50
years, raising 5 children until their deaths in the early 1950's.
Rucker Place then became a Doctor’s office until Jack and Gail Thompson
purchased the house in the Fall of 2002 and did a complete renovation,
opening for our first event in the Spring of 2003.
General Rucker served in the Civil War and came to Birmingham in the
late 1880's and built his home on a hill overlooking the city.
He named the area Nabob Hill (now the site of Ramsey High School). Soon
afterwards other area families built their homes there. The families
that lived there represent a major part of the history of the Five
Points South residential area and the development of Birmingham.
Have your pre-wedding celebrations, ceremony and reception at the
most romantic venue in Birmingham! All pricing is based on the number
of guests, the month, day and time of the wedding or reception.
