The Knight House - Auburn, Maine 1796




One of Auburn, Maine's oldest structures, The Knight House dates back to 1796. This small Cape Cod-design building is located on the Auburn Riverwalk and is available for tours via the Androscoggin Historical Society 

Records show that the house has had 12 owners and was moved six times. It originally was located on Cross Street near North River Road, nearly a mile from the present site. It probably was originally built on a 100-acre tract by settler Caleb Lincoln, a Revolutionary War veteran who soon conveyed it to Hezekiah Wyman, of Bath
