The Strong House is a historic house at 67 Amity Street in Amherst, Massachusetts. It was built c. 1744 by Simeon Strong, not long after the permanent settlement of Amherst began in 1738.[2] Originally a 2-1/2 story saltbox in configuration, it was enlarged, probably in the late 18th century, to its present 3-1/2 stories with gambrel roof.
The Simeon Strong House was given to the Amherst Historical Society in 1916.[3] It currently houses the Amherst History Museum.[4]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984,[1] and included in the Amherst Central Business District in 1991.[2]
