Schuylkill County Visitors Bureau / 800-765-7282 / www.schuylkill.org Schuylkill County is nestled between the mountains of East Central Pennsylvania in the Coal Country Corridor of the Schuylkill River National & State Heritage Area, where outdoor recreation, unique attractions, fascinating history and a host of exciting events abound. We are a cultural heritage destination like no other. The Schuylkill River begins in our mountains and we are best known for the vast quantities of hard anthracite coal that helped fuel America's Industrial Revolution during the 19th and 20th centuries. The mines attracted thousands of immigrant workers from around the world, creating a rich and diverse cultural community. Many of the foods, crafts, music, languages, and artistic traditions that these groups brought with them survive in Schuylkill County today.

Welcome to Schuylkill County; an American Original! Initially settled by the Lenape tribe and early Dutch settlers, Schuylkill County quickly became a magnet for German, Irish, English, Welch and a veritable host of Eastern European immigrants. Their shared influence, the very essence of America, is visible in our architecture and old European-style churches. Our rich mining heritage, that drew so many immigrants to our little Pennsylvanian hamlet, was the fuel of the industrial revolution. This era, earmarked with prodigious innovations and idealism that were traditionally expressed in both industry and the arts, is still alive today. Our pristine outdoors, home of America’s precious stores of anthracite coal, is also lush with forest, mountains, trails and streams. Whether your interests lean toward historic attractions or outdoor recreation, action-packed events or cultural offerings; you’ll find it all here in Schuylkill County. Our unique attractions feature D.G. Yuengling & Sons; American’s oldest brewery, anthracite mining heritage that fueled the industrial revolution including the Pioneer Tunnel & the Museum of Anthracite Mining, Jerry’s Classic Cars & Collectibles Museum, walking tours, The Appalachian Trail, the pristine nature of Hawk Mountain and its 200 degree panorama atop the famed North Lookout, and the authentically restored 1874 Tamaqua Railroad Station. Schuylkill County boasts of a variety of the best in outdoor recreation including the Schuylkill River, three state parks, one county park, campgrounds, hiking, fishing, hunting, canoeing, golfing, biking, and much more. If you are intrigued by interesting history, lured by the beauty of the outdoors, or simply looking for a relaxing adventure just beyond the hustle and bustle of the Poconos, Philadelphia or PA Dutch Country, then Schuylkill County is the natural choice.
