Description
English:

A one and one-half stone structure has a mansard roof, dormers, and a siding-covered addition on the right side. A concrete walkway follows the side of the building.

In 1867, the Act to Establish and to Protect National Cemeteries directed the Secretary of War to provide superintendents at all national military cemeteries with permanent housing. Designed in the Second Empire style, the Lodge was constructed in 1872 and enlarged in 1874. A small rear kitchen addition was built by 1934.
