Spotlight Tour: Constructing Germantown: The Buildings of Jacob Knorr

Among the best-known buildings of Germantown are the sturdy, elegant stone structures known today as Cliveden, the Johnson House, the Germantown Mennonite Meeting House, and the Concord School House. Remarkably, these structures can all be attributed to one builder, Jacob Knorr. This tour will bring visitors into these charming and significant sites. We will investigate what we know about the building of early Germantown, and what mysteries remain.
In the case of inclement weather, this tour will be rescheduled.
Admission: $20 – General Admission | $10 – 19119 & 19144 residents, Cliveden, and National Trust members
