About

Built according to specifications set by the leaders of the New Harmony millennialist community, the Harmonists, this was one of the many houses and public buildings constructed by the followers of their religious leader, George Rapp. The house is built in the southern German half-timbered style and exemplifies the simple tastes of the Harmonists. The house is owned and furnished by the Indiana Society and is leased to Historic New Harmony.
