Heinrich Zeller House, Stone fortified house in Millcreek Township, Pennsylvania, United States.

The limestone building includes thick walls, narrow windows with locking shutters, and a steep gable roof with handmade red clay tiles.

Heinrich Zeller constructed this stone structure in 1745 to replace a log cabin, providing shelter during conflicts with Native American tribes.

The interior design reflects Pennsylvania German traditions with its central twelve-foot fireplace, living spaces, and traditional architectural elements.

The house contains a basement storage area and benefits from a natural spring that flows from bedrock, creating suitable conditions for food preservation.

The second floor bedroom features what experts consider the oldest remaining hanging shutter in Pennsylvania.
