"133 East 3rd Street, Charles Feudel House, c. 1875, Contributing (survey #67)
Outbuilding: Garage, non-contributing
Similar to other Missouri-German houses in Hermann, this is a 1 1/2 story brick house with
side-gable roof sitting on a stone foundation. The facade is 5-bays in width with a central
entrance. Fenestration has segmental arched openings with stone sills, and windows are
replacement sash. The corbelled cornice has a dentiled band above a slightly projecting
stretcher bay under a very narrow eave. The dormer is a newer addition (c. 1940?). It is
wide with a hipped roof and four modern replacement windows. The east wall abuts a
neighboring building. The foundation shows evidence of a cellar entry off sidewalk at the
left front. There is a brick arch evident in the stone foundation. A modern garage is located
at the rear of the lot." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
