Designed in the Beaux Arts style, Cairnwood Estate was completed in 1895 and served as the home of John Pitcairn, founder of the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company, until his death in 1916. After the Pitcairn family donated the house in 1980, Cairnwood stood vacant until 1994, when the Academy of the New Church renovated the structure.
Today Cairnwood serves as an educational, cultural, and hospitality center serving the College, Bryn Athyn community and surrounding area.
