Anthracite
coal forged
our region
In this bicentennial year, it
is exceedingly appropriate
to reflect on how we’ve come
to be the exciting natural
and historic community we
are. The history of Schuylkill
County is inextricably bound
to the history of the United
States anthracite industry.
Although the settlement of
Schuylkill County occurred
long before the discovery of the
“black diamonds” that would
fuel the nation’s industrial
6
into a rich
and diverse
community
revolution, it is anthracite coal
that forged our region into the
rich diverse community it is
today.
The history of Schuylkill
County officially dates back
to 1811 when the county was
formed from nearby Berks
and Northampton counties,
yet our true historical wealth
lies in the fossils and fuel
beneath our surface. Before
the first European settler
ventures through our forests,
Schuylkill served as a NativeAmerican hunting ground for
the many tribes inhabiting
the banks of the Susquehanna
and Delaware Rivers in
Pennsylvania.
During the latter half of the
18th century, predominantly
German settlers farmed our
wide valleys during the era
of the American Revolution.
By the 1890s, the discovery
of Anthracite Coal forged
a new era of Industrial
Revolution, as coal mining
influenced immigration and
developed many boroughs
and patches across the county.
Transportation
expansion,
including canal, railroad, and
trolley followed as Schuylkill
County, fueled by the Anthracite
Industry, pushed into the
20th Century. Along the way,
a multi-ethnic immigration
followed, making Schuylkill
one of the United States’
classic “Melting Pots”.
While the Anthracite heyday has come and gone and
newer industry now fuels
our economy, Schuylkill still
maintains several landmarks
from that unique by-gone
era. In addition, the original
agricultural beauty from the
18th Century remains and
can be best admired from a
variety of scenic overlooks
across the county. The unique
and rich history of Schuylkill
county is represented in the
variety of museums, mine &
walking tours, scenic train
rides, architectural styles,
ethnic festivals and truly oneof-a-kind sculptures which
abound across the county.
