Orgonon

Orgonon was the 175-acre (71 ha) home, laboratory and research center of the Austrian-born psychiatrist Wilhelm Reich (1897–1957).

Bell and built for Reich in 1948, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (as the Orgone Research Laboratory), and is a significant example of International Style architecture in the state.

The name is derived from the hypostatized term "orgone", Reich's principal area of study in his later years.

The upper level, accessed by stairs at the back of the hall, included a bathroom, office, and living quarters.
