George Nace House, Federal architectural residence in Hanover, United States
The George Nace House features nine rooms and nine fireplaces on its brick structure, built upon a rubble fieldstone foundation with double chimneys.
Built in 1783 by Mathias Nace, the house gained recognition when George Nace Jr served as Hanover's third postmaster from 1790 to 1813.
The residence contains the Yelland Library, a collection of 800 books and artifacts documenting the regional history of Pennsylvania.
Visitors can explore the house museum and research facilities on Friday mornings or schedule appointments during weekdays through the Hanover Area Historical Society.
The house preserves an American flag that survived the Battle of Hanover in 1863, originally displayed at the American Spectator newspaper office.
