The Conrad Weiser
Homestead
is a Pennsylvania state historic site located in
Womelsdorf, Berks County, Pennsylvania which interprets the
life of Conrad Weiser. Weiser was an 18th century German

coordinate Pennsylvania's Indian policy. He played a major
role in the history of colonial Pennsylvania. The Conrad
Weiser Homestead is located on Rt. 422, within easy driving
distance of Philadelphia, Lancaster, Hershey and Harrisburg.
Come and enjoy this rural countryside dotted with the
surviving period stone houses and traditional farms. The
Conrad Weiser Homestead includes period buildings, and a new
orientation exhibit, on a 26-acre Olmsted-designed
landscaped park.
