After eating (at Hometown Kitchen on Friday) we came back to the hotel. I let the car cool down so I could check the oil before our trip back home on Saturday. While waiting everyone but Cathy decided to take a walk. Joy brought Ilene back after a few minutes but Rita, Roman and I continued walking for about 30 minutes before heading back. We walk about 1/2 mile, down one side of the street and back up the other side. Most of the homes and buildings are historic.
Strasburg, PA, on Main Street, features a collection of historic homes dating back to the 18th and 19th centuries. These homes, primarily located in the Strasburg Historic District, showcase a mix of architectural styles including German, vernacular, Georgian, and Federal, with notable examples built using log, brick, limestone, and sandstone.
St. Michael’s Lutheran Church. Brick, “One of the finest examples remaining of Georgian meeting house style churches in Lancaster County”. C. 1806-1816. Numerous graves of Revolutionary Soldiers in the grave yard.
One of the oldest documented log houses in town. C. 1764. Standing at odd angle to street, indicating it was erected before the present road was laid out. “The Christopher Sprech House” (I think).
