The Ignatius Eckert House is an 1868 home, located at 724 Ashland Street, Hastings in the U.S. state of Minnesota. The wooden Italian Village-style house features a hipped roof with cupola on top. It is an example of the "Country Homes" style of Andrew Jackson Downing, a pioneer in American landscape architecture. The original owner, Reverend G. W. T. Wright was a minister at the nearby Hastings Methodist Episcopal Church. Retired farmer, Ignatius Eckert bought the home ca. 1909.
Cupolated Italian Villa style frame residence, moved from abandoned townsite of Nininger in 1857.
