Pottsville, PA
Pottsville, Pennsylvania, known for its anthracite coal, has a colorful ethnic history.
Legend has it that in 1790 hunter Necho Allen fell asleep at Broad Mountain and woke up to his campfire having ignited coal. This discovery brought many European immigrants to Pottsville, dreaming of a home and a steady job.
This early settlement led to the rich ethnic heritage, hard work, and a sense of camaraderie within the community. To be a resident of Pottsville is to be a part of Pennsylvania's history, from America's Oldest Brewery to antique and classic cars, and celebrated Mollie Maguires to classic architecture.
There is an awareness of the arts in Pottsville and a celebration of life that would be attractive to any student. The distinctive combination of museums, murals, and monuments help commemorate the city's colorful and historic past. |
