Royer–Nicodemus House and Farm, also known as the Renfrew Museum and Park, is a historic home and farm located at Waynesboro in Franklin County, Pennsylvania. The main house was built about 1812, and is a 2 1/-2-story, four bay stone dwelling, with a two bay addition built about 1815. It was restored in 1974-1975. The property also includes the brick Fahnestock farmstead (1852), a small stone butcher / smoke house, stone and log springhouse, and large frame barn with distinctive cupolas built in 1896.

The property was deeded to the Borough of Waynesboro in 1973, and has operated as Renfrew Museum and Park since 1975.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.
