The Sodergren Farm in Stockholm was settled in 1884 by the Sodergren family, who, like many Swedes in the decade before, had immigrated to the Swedish colony of Aroostook County in northern Maine. The farm contains a modest, but little altered, one-story log house set on a slight knoll and surrounded by fields that the family has tended for almost 125 years. With the exception of a frame kitchen addition that was removed in 1963 the Sodergren House has undergone almost no modernization or alteration, thus rendering it possibly the most authentic 19th century log house known in the Aroostook County Swedish settlement area. This property was listed in the National Register of Historic Places for its important association with the settlement of Stockholm, and is an architecturally significant example of a Swedish-style log house.
