Lower Swedish Cabin

The Lower Swedish Cabin is a historic Swedish-style log cabin which is located on Creek Road in the Drexel Hill section of Upper Darby, Pennsylvania, along Darby Creek.

[3] The house was likely built sometime between 1640 and 1650 by Swedish/Finnish immigrants who were part of the New Sweden colony.

The house served as a private residence until 1937, when it was recorded by the Historic American Buildings Survey.

[6] Afterwards, it was offered to local Girl Scouts who used it as a campsite for several years.
