Daniel Howell Hise House
Daniel Howell Hise House, Gothic Revival residence in Salem, Ohio, United States.

Built in 1838, this residence became a significant Underground Railroad station from 1849 to 1855, offering shelter to individuals escaping slavery.
Daniel and Margaret Hise named their residence Unserheim, meaning 'our home' in German, reflecting the multicultural influences of Salem's early settlers.
