Horace Burgess's Treehouse

Horace Burgess's Treehouse (also known as the Minister's Treehouse) was a treehouse and church in Crossville, Tennessee, United States. Construction began in 1993, mostly by Burgess, who says that, in a vision, God commanded him to build a treehouse. It became a popular local attraction and was unofficially called the largest tree house in the world.[1] It was closed by the state on August 30, 2012, for fire code violations.[2] On October 22, 2019, the tree house completely burned to the ground in less than 15 minutes under unknown circumstances.[3][4]
