Roe Cobblestone Schoolhouse and its collection

Roe Cobblestone Schoolhouse
Source

The Roe Cobblestone Schoolhouse is a one-story cobblestone building, measuring 28 feet long by 22 feet deep, with a three-bay wide structure. Built around 1820, the schoolhouse is constructed of irregularly shaped, multi-colored field cobbles. This unique construction method and the building's age make it a fascinating destination for architecture enthusiasts and history buffs alike.

From School to Museum

The Roe Cobblestone Schoolhouse ceased to function as a school in 1932 and was used as a single-family residence. Today, it is operated as a schoolhouse museum by the Butler Historical Society, which also operates the Butler Church Museum. Visitors can explore the schoolhouse and learn about its history and the broader history of education in the region.
