In 1830, a frame building was constructed to replace the log building and the school location was moved into town. This building was later converted to the blacksmith shop, and the location of the school was moved across the street from the Methodist Church. The Walpack Center Schoolhouse that stands now was built in 1893 and is the third schoolhouse erected in the village. This building has a combination wood and coal stove to heat the room and two outhouses in the back of the school. The schoolhouse shares many stylistic similarities with the other buildings in town with its white clapboard siding, green trim, and a slate roof. A belfry is located on the front of the building where a bell used to ring periodically throughout the day. Adjacent to the schoolhouse are two garage buildings.The Walpack School HouseWalpack CenterWallpackDelaware Water GapDelaware RiverNational Recreation AreaNPSNational Park ServiceNational ParkThe SkylandsNJ SkylandsThe New Jersey SkylandsNew Jersey SkylandsJersey SkylandsLakelandNew JerseySussex CountyNorthwestern New JerseyJerseyNJThe Garden StatePennsylvaniaPAThe Keystone StateU.S. National Register of Historic PlacesNew Jersey Register of Historic PlacesU.S. Historic district4309 x 2873Each photograph within this collection is protected by copyright and/or related rights.
