The George Rewerts House is a 2½-story frame residence in Defiance, Iowa, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991. Built in 1902 by German immigrant carpenter George Rewerts with help from Nels Gregersen and Lee Hulsebus, it shows Queen Anne and Stick style influences. The house is significant for its link to German immigration to the area from 1872 into the 1940s and for its representation of the local building industry that German immigrants established.
