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.

A Letter from the Executive Director
Salutations!
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.
One visit may surprise you,
