The Herman A. and Lillian Greiling House is a fine and intact brick house constructed in 1920. The house was designed by the architecture firm of Foeller and Schober of Green Bay and is one of the largest and most prominent residential projects designed by Foeller and Schober.

Herman Greiling was a prominent Green Bay, Wisconsin businessman, entrepreneur, engineer, and civic leader during the early twentieth century. He established the Marine Construction Company in 1896 with his brother Charles, specializing in marine architecture such as bridges, retaining walls, ship machinery, and docks as a major employer all over the Midwest. The brothers operated the company for over forty years. Herman co-founded the Hartmann-Greiling Machine and Boiler Works in 1911 manufacturing boat machinery and boilers. He served as the first president of the Allouez Water Commission in 1924 and was an active booster of village services. Greiling was also personally involved in many financial and social institutions in Green Bay. He was featured in the county history book and was cited for his civic leadership upon his death.

The house features characteristic Mediterranean Revival elements including brick masonry construction, a large porch, massive masonry columns, stone accents and belt-coursing, wood double-hung windows, low-pitched clay tile roof, decorative brackets, balconies, wood interior details, and other Mediterranean style details. It remains one of the best examples of the Mediterranean Revival applied to a large house in the Village of Allouez
