NOT YOUR TYPICAL OLD HOUSE

Built around 1853 by German immigrant John W. Shoppach, the Shoppach House was the first brick home in Saline County, with bricks made on site. Originally designed in the “dog trot” style, the home was later modified to include enclosed entryways, a kitchen, and dining area as the family’s needs changed. The house remained home to five generations of the Shoppach family and still contains many of their belongings today.
