Concord School House, Historic one-room schoolhouse in Germantown, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The Concord School House features stone walls, a bell tower, and two entrance doors on its south side, measuring 25 by 37 feet in dimension.
Built in 1775 by Jacob Knorr, this educational institution served as the first English-language school in Germantown and remained operational until at least 1889.
The museum maintains original classroom elements including the schoolmaster's raised platform, antique desks, period books, and educational materials from the 19th century.
The schoolhouse offers guided tours where visitors can explore the preserved classroom setup and learn about educational methods from colonial Pennsylvania.
The second floor, added in 1818, housed the Charter Oak Library and served as a meeting space for various organizations including the Hiram Lodge.
