The truck in front of the house wasn’t actually Clint’s, but a similar make and model.

We had the opportunity to tour the house and take photos before the fire. It was so beautiful. We are so saddened by the fire and closure to the public.

In 2001 I had the wonderful opportunity to visit all the bridges in Madison County, and to visit Francesca’s house. I toured the whole house, upstairs and down. Walked around the lawn, saw the windmill where Clint Eastwood washed up before supper. Stood in Francesca’s bedroom looking out the window at the windmill. The entire house was the same as it was in the movie. I could feel their presence in the house. I went back the next day and did it all over again. It’s heartbreaking that someone would want to burn or harm these wonderful landmarks. I am so greatful that I was able to be there. Clint’s old green pickup truck was still in the front yard with his camera tripod in the front seat. It’s one trip that I will never, ever forget.

It’s hard to accept the evil side of human kind. Destroy something so beautiful and harmless… I went to visit all the bridges but did not get to see the house. Who ever did this horrible thing needs to be punished by LAW!!!

Why is there a pattern of landmark arson/destruction in Madison County? These beautiful bridges hold such history and importance to the landscape of the region. Your part of the world is so very unique and beautiful; I don’t understand why anyone would want these structures destroyed. Shame on the culprits responsible; you should be punished to the fullest extent of the law.
