The Munger House is a historic house in rural eastern Johnson County, Arkansas. It is located east of Lamar, on the west side of County Road 3851, about 0.25 miles (0.40 km) north of the Pope County line. It is a two-story masonry structure, built out of uncoursed fieldstone and topped by a Dutch Colonial gambrel roof with shed dormers. The roof overhangs a recessed porch supported by square columns. The house interior retains original features, including Art Nouveau light fixtures. It was built in 1934 for Hubert and Vera Munger, and is the area's finest example of Dutch Colonial architecture.[2]
