Oldest timber-frame house in America

Fairbanks House

The chimney proudly displays the date of The Fairbanks House, completed in 1641. That’s more than 270 years ago, and 135 years before the country was started with the Declaration of Independence.

The main fireplace also has a display of the arrowheads found on the site from the Native American tribes that lived in this part of the country. See the complete article for more historic details from our priceless cultural heritage.
