337 East Main Street

Tornado-Struck

 

This neoclassical-style home, somewhat unusual for the area, was built in the 1890s for Mr. Hartz, one of Annville’s early postal workers, and his family.  During their residency, the tornado of August 1915 hit the area, and some damage was sustained to the building.
