The Torian Log Cabin is a hand-hewn log dwelling that originally stood on a headright settled in 1845 by Francis Throop, a Peters colonist from Missouri, near the pioneer community of Dove. Kentucky farmer John R. Torian bought the property in 1886, and Torian family members occupied the cabin into the 1940s. Rescued in the early 1970s, it was moved to its present site on Main Street across from Grapevine City Hall in 1976, recorded as a Texas Historic Landmark in 1978, and is maintained by the Grapevine Historical Society.
