History

In 1749, at the age of 10, Ulrich Rieber left Ebingen, Germany, for America and the territory of Pennsylvania. He lived in Philadelphia until the age of 19, when he traveled west to Lancaster and built a house on a spring close to this location. Ulrich's original house was saved through the generosity and enthusiasm of Phyllis Reaver Unger, a direct descendent of Ulrich Rieber, and LCSWMA, which moved the house to its current location and restored it for adaptive reuse.
