Old Eagle School, Historical museum in Tredyffrin Township, Pennsylvania.
The Old Eagle School contains stone walls, three windows on each side, two on the end, and features an inscription dated 1788 on its southern section.
The school emerged from a 150-acre land purchase by Jacob Giradin in 1765, starting as a log cabin church before transforming into an educational institution.
The graveyard adjacent to the building holds 70 graves of early settlers and Revolutionary War soldiers who participated in the Valley Forge encampment.
The museum opens to visitors on Sundays between 2:00 and 4:00 PM during summer months, with free admission and guided tours of the grounds.
Students at the original school sat on wooden slab benches arranged in double rows around the room edges while the teacher occupied the center near the fireplace.
