Historic House Tour (virtual)

This fall, the Westmoreland Historical Society will again open doors to the remarkable history of Westmoreland County during our Historic House Tour. Once again this year, due to the pandemic, we have created a unique virtual event set for September 18, 2021. We will take guests on a virtual tour, “Gone But Not Forgotten,” of houses and hotels from across the county that aren’t here anymore. In addition to photos of the exteriors and interiors, guests will learn about the history of the county, the stories of the original owners, and how the style and architecture of a building provide clues to its history.

“Gone But Not Forgotten” highlights nearly 20 buildings that once stood such as the McComb and Saxman residences in Latrobe, Cabin Hill and Rose Fountain Farm in Greensburg, Mountain View Hotel in Unity Township, and Belvedere Hotel in Oklahoma Borough as well as properties in Scottdale, Mt. Pleasant, New Kensington, Laughlintown, and other areas.

PROGRAM FEE: This program is $25 and benefits the Westmoreland Historical Society. Tickets are available through our online shop here. Attendees may also request an invitation by calling 724-836-1800 x200 or emailing their name and address to history@westmorelandhistory.org. Checks are payable to: Westmoreland Historical Society, 809 Forbes Trail Road, Greensburg, PA  15601

We will celebrate the tour in an historic home at our Toast the Tour Cocktail Party on September 10.
