Johann Christian Frederick Rath House

The Johann Christian Frederick Rath House, located in Dubuque, Iowa, is a historic 1½-story brick structure completed in 1853 by Johann Rath, a German immigrant who was a woodworker, farmer, and lead miner. The house features a distinctive side-gable roof with a large dormer and a full-length, two-story porch, reflecting Georgian Revival architectural style. Rath's family occupied the house until 1937, and it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1977, making it a notable site for tourists and researchers interested in local history and architecture.
