Knott's Berry Farm Bottle House in Ghost Town was made from 3,082 wine and whiskey bottles.
Although building materials were often scarce in the old west, liquor bottles were always plentiful, and an enterprising miner would sometimes build himself a house of bottles and mud. Knott's Berry Farm built theirs in 1944. It is similar to a bottle house built in Rhyolite, Nevada. If you ever build yourself a bottle house, be sure to turn all the bottles neck inward, as they are at Knotts. Otherwise, on a windy day, you're going to hear very spooky sound effects.
Used as Indian Trader store, the bottle house is a remake of the Rhyolite Bottle House replicated from photos taken by Walter Knott in the early 1950s.
