The David Hyatt Van Dolah House (locally known as The Castle) is a historic house located at 10 North Spencer Street in Lexington, Illinois. The house was built in 1898 for David Hyatt Van Dolah, a prominent local landowner best known as an importer and broker of French horses. Architect George H. Miller, one of the most well-regarded architects in the Bloomington area, and his partner James E. Fisher designed the house in the Queen Anne style. The front of the house features a large round turret on one corner, a wraparound porch, and a large stepped gable opposite the turret. The house's exterior is decorated with brickwork patterns, a departure from the ornamental woodwork usually used to side Queen Anne homes. The hipped roof of the house features cross gables, a cone atop the turret, and several pinnacles and spires.^[2]

The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 14, 2015.^[1]
