Join us as Greg Huber presents “The History of Sweitzer Barns in Lancaster County.” The two-level bank barn, also know as “The Sweitzer”, was likely the first barn of its specific type in North America that appeared initially in the middle third of the 18th century. Hear about the various factors that helped to influence the making and use of this magnificent barn.

After the presentation, Huber will have copies of his book “The Historic Barns of Southeastern Pennsylvania” available for purchase and signing.

This presentation will take place in the Langmuir Education Room located on the first floor of the Rock Ford Barn which is a outstanding example of this style of barn.
