One visit may surprise you. www.schuylkill.org 5 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. www.schuylkill.org 7 Januar y Each month offers events unique to the region and our heritage Greater Pottsville Area Winter Carnival, January to February.
