History

The adobe was built on a small portion of the Rancho San Rafael which was granted to José María Verdugo in 1784. Jose Maria Verdugo's grandson, Teodoro Verdugo, built the adobe on a small portion of the rancho. Some sources indicate that the adobe was built for José María Verdugo's blind daughter, Catalina, who lived there until her death in 1871. The most probable date of construction was between 1828 and the 1830s, which are claimed by the City of Glendale and California Parks Service, respectively. Other sources indicate that Catalina lived in the adobe with Teodoro and his family up until her death in 1861.

Preservation

The adobe was designated as the first entry on the Glendale Register of Historic Resources. It was also registered in 1958 as California Historical Landmark No. 637. In 1976, the adobe along with the nearby "Oak of Peace" were listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The property is now owned by the City of Glendale and is operated as a historic park.
