The Fountain House, Historical building in central Doylestown, Pennsylvania, United States.

The four-story Fountain House stands as a commercial structure with Victorian architectural elements, featuring a mansard roof and stone construction.

William Doyle, who established Doylestown, constructed the initial section of the Fountain House in 1758, making it one of seven early taverns.

The Fountain House served multiple functions throughout its existence, including the first Doylestown post office and a stagecoach line terminal.

The building currently houses a Starbucks coffee shop on the ground floor, with law offices and residential apartments on the upper levels.

During the American Revolutionary War, government authorities seized the property from its Tory owner and sold it through a public auction.
