The Conestoga Wagon

  • Schwenkfelder Library & Heritage Center 105 Seminary St Pennsburg, PA 18073 USA (map)

Conestoga wagons have played a significant role in shaping our nation. Unlike some misnomers, the wagons were not used to haul people, but were used to transport freight. During the presentation, Katelyn will talk about the history of the Conestoga wagon, the roads they traveled, the Conestoga wagon design, and accessories associated with the wagon. Feel free to check out the wagon in the Rural Life gallery beforehand! 

Program in-person or via Zoom. Register by emailing info@schwenkfelder.org or calling 215-679-3103 before 5pm Friday, July 26. FREE
