Join us for a Landmark Party celebrating the designation of Freida’s Cottage – Rockville’s First National Landmark with Peerless Rockville and your friends and neighbors!
Friday, October 1, 4 pm on the lawn of the the Frieda Fromm-Reichmann Cottage.
On January 13th, 2021, the Secretary of the Interior designated Frieda’s Cottage as a National Historic Landmark. It is the first Landmark in Rockville!

As owners of Frieda’s Cottage, Peerless Rockville celebrates this national recognition with all of Rockville!
Dr. Fromm-Reichmann was a Jewish woman refugee fleeing Nazi Germany who made groundbreaking contributions to her scientific field.
Peerless Rockville is proud to have her cottage represent these amazing achievements for the benefit of the Rockville community and the entire country. Join us, your neighbors, and Frieda Fromm-Reichmann’s biographer Dr. Gail Hornstein for a gathering celebrating Frieda’s remarkable life and home in Rockville.
