The Beiseker Mansion in Fessenden, North Dakota was built in 1899. It includes Single Style and Queen Anne architecture. It has also been known as T.L. Beiseker Mansion and as Order of the Eastern Star (O.E.S.) Home. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. The listing included two contributing buildings.^[1]

Built for Thomas Lincoln Beiseker (b. 1866), a banker, it was "described at the time of its construction as one of the finest houses in North Dakota (Wells County Free Press, July 27, 1899) [and it] has survived since then with its original architectural character remarkably intact." ^[2]
