Enter the doors to the remarkably rich history of Westmoreland County!
The Historic House Tour fosters appreciation for the wonderful heritage of Westmoreland County. The homes we build, the way we furnish them, how long we live there, and why we leave tells us something about the circumstances of the times.
People like to know the history of their homes and the residents who preceded them. It enhances our sense of place and belonging, and reflects our understanding that a big part of who we are is a product of those who came before us. History gives us context, which in turn provides direction, and makes us better decision makers. That is why history is important, and why the Westmoreland County Historical Society is so committed to this cause.
The 2012 Historic House Tour is scheduled for September 21-22. The "Toast the Tour" Cocktail Party will be held at a yet-to-be announced historic home on Friday evening. The self-driving tour will take place from 10 to 4 on Saturday. At least five homes will on the tour – which will include the historic Sewickley Manor House, barn, and other outbuildings in Mt Pleasant Township.
