Hamburg Area Historical Society is a community built around the history and geography of Hamburg Pennsylvania and the Hamburg Area School District including Shoemakersville, Port Clinton, Strausstown, and Shartlesville areas. We collect books, news articles, ancestry, and other resources to share with members of the society. Anyone interested in the region can be a member no matter where they currently live. Support our cause by donating or joining as a member today.

Our museum is open the 1st and 3rd Sundays from 1pm to 4pm, and you can call 610-562-3664 to reach the museum. Contact us on Facebook or at historyhamburg@gmail.com with questions.

Did you know that Hamburg was once known as the “Broom Capital of America” producing 100,000 dozen brooms a year in two or more factories devoted to that industry?

Please support our mission to preserve our manufacturing past for the future!!
