The Klein Meetinghouse is an historic Dunkard (Schwarzenau Brethren or Church of the Brethren) meetinghouse that is located in Harleysville, Pennsylvania. Built in 1843, it is the second oldest congregation of the Brethren in the United States, and was established in this area in 1720 when Peter Becker, who led the Brethren to America in 1714, built this meetinghouse. The adjoining cemetery contains Becker's remains.Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, 1972, [ NRHP Nomination Form for Klein Meetinghouse] Enter "public" for ID and "public" for password to access the site.
