Benjamin Riegel House

Benjamin Riegel House is a historical home built in 1832 in Riegelsville, Pennsylvania in the Lehigh Valley region of eastern Pennsylvania.

The house was constructed in Georgian style house. Benjamin Riegel, its initial owner and resident, was a miller by trade, owned several area mills, and was instrumental in the development of Riegelsville, Pennsylvania and Riegelsville, New Jersey. He resided in the house until his death in 1860; his widow resided there until her death two decades later, in 1880.

In 1986, in recognition of the home's historical significance, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Since 2010, the property has been privately owned by Dr. and Mrs. Neal Azrolan.
