Marie Zimmermann Farm
Marie Zimmermann Farm is a historic home located in the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area at Delaware Township, Pike County, Pennsylvania. It was built about 1910, and is a large 2 1/2-story, fieldstone dwelling with a gambrel roof with large dormers. It has a two-story, stone rear wing with a steep gable roof. At the intersection of the main house and wing is a round two-story tower, giving the house a French Provincial style. The house is set in a farm complex with two large frame barns, a smaller frame house, and associated outbuildings. It was the home of noted artist Marie Zimmermann (1879-1972).[2]
