Knobeloch-Seibert Farm

Residential Buildings

The Knobeloch-Seibert Farm is a historic farm east of Belleville, Illinois, established around 1832 by John W. Knobeloch and his family, part of a wider wave of German immigration to the American Bottom region of Illinois in the early 1800s. After passing through several generations of the Knobeloch family, the farm was inherited by Henry Seibert. Its first farmhouse, built in 1832, no longer stands, so the oldest surviving building is an 1844 barn, while the second farmhouse, built in 1861, features a segmented arched brick cellar characteristic of German vernacular architecture.
