C. A. Nothnagle Log House, Historic log house in Gibbstown, New Jersey.

The cabin features hand-hewn white oak logs connected by dovetail joints, with an original section measuring 16 by 22 feet.

Finnish settlers constructed this dwelling between 1638 and 1643 during the New Sweden colony period, using Nordic ironware from the 1590s around the fireplace.

Local schoolchildren learned about early Scandinavian immigrant settlers who inhabited the New Sweden area along the Delaware River through educational visits.

The original structure incorporates two removable logs that provided ventilation during summer months, demonstrating early climate control methods.

The cabin contains a fireplace built with bricks that served as ballast on ships, featuring authentic Nordic ironwork for hanging cooking pots.

Location: New Jersey
