The Nicholas Marnach House is the restored home of a Luxembourgian pioneer family in Whitewater Township, Minnesota, United States, built 1857–1860. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978 for having state-level significance in the themes of architecture and exploration/settlement. It was nominated as Southeast Minnesota's oldest surviving example of the traditional European construction occasionally produced by the region's Germanic immigrants. The house is about north of Elba, Minnesota, within the Whitewater Wildlife Management Area, a state wildlife preserve adjacent to Whitewater State Park. ==Description==
The Nicholas Marnach House is a rectangular, two-story building with a rear lean-to set into a hillside. There is an attic under a half-hip roof, and a partial basement under the east half of the house. The walls are constructed of randomly laid limestone covered by thick stucco, and are up to thick. It has three rooms on each floor, each room having a large square window facing south. Narrow starcases provide access between the floors. The attic has smaller windows on either gable, and a layer of concrete poured over the plank flooring as a form of fireproofing.〔 The house is built in the Quereinhaus style that had become popular in rural Luxembourg in the 1840s.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.winonacountyoldsettlers.org/news/marnach.php )〕 The style includes design features in use since medieval times, such as the mortise and tenon timber framing, massive stone walls, stucco façade, square windows, and half-hip roof.〔
