The Joseph Priestley House stands in Northumberland, Pennsylvania, and was the American home of the British theologian and natural philosopher Joseph Priestley from 1798 until his death. Designed by his wife Mary, it is Georgian in form with Federalist accents. The Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission operated it as a museum from 1970 until 2009, and it is a National Historic Landmark.
