Henry Antes House, Colonial house from 1736 in Montgomery County, United States
The Henry Antes House stands as a two-story rubblestone structure with segmented-arch stone headers and a gabled roof measuring two bays wide.
The residence served as headquarters for General George Washington during the Philadelphia Campaign of the American Revolutionary War in September 1777.
The property features one of Pennsylvania's first interracial nonsectarian schools, established by the Moravian community in the colonial period.
The Goschenhoppen Historians maintain the house as a museum, offering guided tours through appointments and during the annual Folk Festival in August.
The interior contains intact original finishes from 1736, including preserved ceilings, board partition walls, and a central German-style fireplace system.
