Peter Wentz Homestead
Peter Wentz Homestead, Historic farm in Worcester Township, Pennsylvania, US.
The Georgian-style farmhouse from 1758 features dressed red shale and sandstone walls with two floors containing four rooms and a central passageway.
General George Washington established his military headquarters at this location during October 1777, before and after the Battle of Germantown.
The property reflects Pennsylvania German farming traditions through its architectural design, including a bank barn and separate winter and summer kitchens.
The homestead offers guided tours Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM and Sundays from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM.
