Das Haus Museum and its collection

Das Haus Museum, also known as Das Haus und Der Stahl, is a small campus of buildings that house artifacts representing the early years of German Lutheran settlers in Western New York, who originated from Prussia in northern Germany. These artifacts provide a glimpse into the lives and culture of these early settlers, making it a significant destination for those interested in history and heritage.

Location of Das Haus Museum

The Das Haus Museum is situated in Niagara Falls, New York, on the very site where Das Haus was originally constructed. This location adds to the authenticity of the museum and provides a direct connection to the history it represents.

Historical Architecture at Das Haus Museum

Das Haus and the Einhaus, originally built in 1843-1844, are among the last remaining examples of a unique type of building where humans and livestock lived under one roof. This arrangement provided heat from the animals to benefit the humans during winter. These structures offer a unique insight into the living conditions and architectural practices of the early German settlers in Western New York.
