Bronck House, also known as Pieter Bronck House, is a Dutch homestead house in Coxsackie in Greene County, New York, that was constructed in 1663 and added to later.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Pieter Bronck House )〕 It is the oldest structure in upstate New York,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bronck Museum and Barns )〕 and was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1967.〔 A stone house was built first, by Pieter Bronck, a relative of Jonas Bronck, for whom the Bronx was named, who bought the property from native Americans. That was expanded soon after, and, in 1738 a larger brick house that was connected by a doorway was built by his grandson. The house is reputed to be the location where the Coxsackie Declaration of Independence was signed, more than a year before the Continental Congress signing in 1776.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bronck House )〕 The house remained in the family until 1938. It now is owned and operated as a museum by the Greene County Historical Society.〔 The Bronck Farm 13-Sided Barn is related to, but listed separately from the Bronck House. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.〔 It is located on Pieter Bronck Road, off US 9W, in Coxsackie, west of the Hudson River, south of Albany. ==See also== *List of the oldest buildings in New York 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bronck House」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
