The Selma Schricker House is a historic home located in a residential neighborhood in the West End of Davenport, Iowa, United States.

==History==
This house was built for Selma Schricker in 1902. She was the daughter of Lorenzo Schricker, a lumber baron, and his third wife Johanna. The Schricker's had lived nearby in the Marquette Heights neighborhood. Selma had been educated in the local public schools and graduated from St. Katherine's, a private preparatory school for girls in Davenport. She had this house built after her mother's death in 1898. Selma never married and died in the house in September 1931 at the age of 50. She is buried with her mother, sister and half-brother in a mausoleum in Oakdale Memorial Gardens.
The Diocese of Davenport purchased the house as the official residence of its bishop in 1933. It was the home of Bishops Henry Rohlman, Ralph Hayes, Gerald O'Keefe and William Franklin. The diocese sold the house in 1996.
Mark and Judy Westrom bought the house in November 2000 and did extensive restoration work for which they received recognition from local preservationists.〔 The house suffered a roof fire on November 6, 2010.
