History of the Frederick Stegmaier Mansion
The Frederick Stegmaier Mansion, located in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, was constructed around 1870 by local architect Missouria B. Houpt. Houpt resided there with his family until 1906, after which the property changed hands several times. In 1910, the mansion was acquired by Frederick J. Stegmaier, a prominent local brewer known for Stegmaier Beer, which earned multiple gold medals in the early 1900s. The mansion features a French Chateau exterior and a blend of Gothic Revival and Aesthetic Movement interiors. Today, the mansion stands as a testament to Wilkes-Barre’s rich history and architectural heritage.
