Site History
Peter and Rosanna Wentz established the
farm in 1744. By 1758, they had completed
the large Georgian style stone house that
reflects their German heritage and their wealth
as a successful farming family. They sold the
property in 1784 to Devault Bieber, a distant
relative by marriage. In 1794, Bieber sold the
property to Schwenkfelder minister, Reverend
Melchior Schultz. Schultz family descendants
farmed the land and resided in the house until
1969, when the County of Montgomery
purchased the property.

The County of Montgomery restored the site to
represent its appearance at the time of the
American Revolution. General Washington
used the Wentz farmstead as a temporary
headquarters during October 1777, while the
Continental Army was camped nearby.
Special events and exhibits representing
Pennsylvania German culture and early
American life take place throughout the year.
