The Werner Knoop House is a historic house at 6 Ozark Point in Little Rock, Arkansas. Built in 1936-37, it is a rare example of Art Moderne residential architecture in the city. It is a two story L-shaped structure, its exterior finished in brick with flush mortar joints and painted white, with asymmetrically arranged steel-frame windows in a variety of sizes and shapes. Its entrance is recessed in a rectangular opening framed by stone, immediately to the right of the projecting two-car garage. The house was built for Werner Knoop, owner of a local construction company, to a design by the local firm Brueggeman, Swaim & Allen.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1]
