This photograph was taken of the home of the founder of Myerstown, Isaac Myer. In those times the house was considered a mansion as Myer was a very wealthy man and could afford such a place. It was partly in fact that the town was named after this man due to his great wealth.

Before construction began to restore the house, the interior was in complete disarray. Since the time of Isaac Myer (the mid 18th century) families had been living there and so changing the interior to fit the times; however, modernly, the inside of the house has been reconstructed as it would have looked in the time that the Myers inhabited the home. Every detail was taken into account and so resulted in the fine hand-blown glass in the windows, the real horse hair plaster in the walls, even artifacts from the home are displayed throughout the house's many rooms. The fireplaces were all redone with the original home's bricks. The upstairs has not been restored yet, but the Myerstown Historical Society has been working to come up with new funds to finish the project.

Presently the house is located very close to a moderately busy city street. In fact, the corner of the home actually cuts into the sidewalk. It stands as a monument to the people of Myerstown to this day.
