Sodom Schoolhouse, Historic school building in West Chillisquaque Township, US
The octagonal limestone schoolhouse contains seven windows, a single door on the south side, and a central chimney rising from its roof.
The school operated from the early 1800s until 1915, serving students within a three-mile radius and accommodating between 40 to 60 children regularly.
The interior featured slate grey walls, a central wood-burning stove, and a teacher's platform with red furniture alongside student desks and recitation benches.
The structure stands near Pennsylvania Route 45 and underwent complete restoration in 1961, preserving its architectural elements for future generations.
The building functioned as both a Methodist Church until 1858 and a location for political meetings and elections in West Chillisquaque Township.
