Summary

Description End wall of ruined stone barn (18th century) at Camp Michaux -- formerly a tenant farm supporting the iron industry at what is now Pine Grove Furnace State Park, 1.5 miles southeast from Camp Michaux. The farm's last harvest was wheat in 1918, after which the area became a Civilian Conservation Corps camp, a World War II prisoner of war interrogation camp, and then a church summer camp until 1972. It is rumored (but unproven) that the barn was built by Hessian prisoners of war who are documented to have built the Powder Magazine building (1777) at the War College in Carlisle PA. No other structures from the farm era of Camp Michaux remain.
