Körner's Folly is a historic home located at Kernersville, Forsyth County, North Carolina.
 It was built in 1880 by Jule Gilmer Körner, and is a 6,000 square foot, 3 1/2-story, eccentric brick dwelling with a shingled, cross-gable roof.
 It measures 48 feet on each side, with four bays.
 The house is said to have served originally as combination dwelling, stable, and carriage house, and featured an open carriageway running through the center of the house.
 Körner made his fortune by spearheading one of the first national advertising campaigns by painting murals of Bull Durham Smoking tobacco bulls on buildings and barns across the American east coast.
 In the 1870s he moved back to his hometown Kernersville, NC, to build Körner's Folly and start an interior decorating and design business.
 After marrying Polly Alice Masten and having two children, Gilmer and Dore, Körner closed the carriageway and renovated the house to its present floor plan.
 The 22-room interior features unusual architecture and many examples of Victorian furniture and interior decoration since Körner used the house to showcase his business.
 Also on the property is a brick outbuilding – a small-scale version of the main house – which functioned as the "privy."
