The Adolph Schreiber House is a 2-story, Neoclassical Revival house in Boise, Idaho designed by Tourtellotte & Hummel and constructed by contractor O.W. Allen in 1915.[2] The design included a 10-room dwelling and a second-story apartment accessed from a side entrance.[3] The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 1982.[2]

Adolph Schreiber was a funeral director and embalmer in Boise from 1902 until the late 1930s.[4] He was elected Ada County Coroner in 1904 and continued in that office for several years.[5] Schreiber was in partnership with embalmer Edward Brennan, Schreiber & Brennan, from 1904 until 1906,[6] and then he formed a partnership with William Sidenfaden, Schreiber & Sidenfaden, that lasted until 1925.[7] Boise's first ambulance was purchased by Schreiber & Brennen in 1904.[8]
