Gen. Frederick Von Steuben Headquarters, Military headquarters in Valley Forge, United States

The General Friedrich Von Steuben Headquarters stands as a 2.5-story stone building with a gabled roof and three chimneys at Valley Forge National Historical Park.

James White constructed this residence in 1770, which later served as Baron von Steuben's command center during the Continental Army's Valley Forge encampment of 1777-1778.

The headquarters represents the Continental Army's transformation period, where Von Steuben implemented standardized military training procedures that shaped American military practices until 1814.

Visitors can find the headquarters along Pennsylvania Route 23 near the Valley Forge Post Office, within the western section of Valley Forge National Historical Park.

The building features a distinctive pent roof separating its first and second floors, with an interior reconstructed to reflect precise 18th-century architectural specifications.
