Forged in History: Poole Forge and America at 250

Join Historic Poole Forge for a special look into our local past as we commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States.

Discover artifacts excavated from the historic Poole Forge and Spring Grove Forge sites and see original property deeds that help tell the story of the land, people, and industry that shaped our community. These objects provide a fascinating glimpse into everyday life and the history hidden beneath our feet.

A Revolutionary-era cannon will also be on display, offering visitors a tangible connection to the period when a new nation was taking shape.

This small, special exhibit invites visitors to experience history through the objects and documents that survived it. Come explore the connections between our local heritage and the broader American story as we mark 250 years of our nation’s history.
