Mount Helena






Mount Helena in Rolling Fork is such a majestic sight. You can see it from a distance if traveling along U.S. 61 on the north side of Rolling Fork. I love the columns of the home and the view of the cornfields that now surround the home is unlike any other. It's built on an Indian mound and is just a neat place to visit. These photos were taken a couple of weekends ago. The corn crop is mighty high around the place.

  1. Mount Helena is a big part of my childhood memories and owned by a family friend. I took tons of photos inside and out myself this past March. It has amazing character and the ghost stories I grew up with make it even more intriguing.

  3. I'm headed there this weekend--my grandfather's half-brother owned the place about a hundred years ago and I have always wanted to see it.
