Historic Epler Schoolhouse Relocated

The Epler School was built in 1847 in Berks County, Pennsylvania. It operated as a one-room school for almost 85 years until it was converted to a private residence in 1931. In 2020, it was scheduled for demolition until the building's owner, local residents, and generous donors worked together to cover the cost of moving the building to the nearby Berks County Historical Center. Wolfe House & Building Movers used the remote-controlled Buckingham Smartsteer™ dollies to carry the 145-ton building 1½ miles to its new location.
