The Manheim Historical Society was founded in 1964 and is dedicated to preserving the past for the future.  The Society has concentrated on the preservation of some of the landmarks that have characterized the borough of Manheim and the surrounding areas, as well as collecting local historical artifacts and documents.  These landmarks include the Heritage Center that houses the various historical artifacts and documents; the Railroad Station that serves as a time capsule for railroad history, as well as a gathering hall and meeting place; the Keath and Fasig log houses giving visitors a glimpse of colonial-era living; the Howard Street Clock on the Square; and the Birney Safety Trolley Car No. 236 that celebrates its 100th birthday this year.

The Society offers a wide range of events including historic walking tours, an annual ice cream social, monthly book club, Heritage Center, Fasig House and Keath House museums, and Holiday Open Houses.  Our educational programs cover a wide range of topics including notable local and national figures, indigenous history, the Revolutionary and Civil Wars, modern American history, native plant gardening, and practical techniques for preserving family documents, photographs and heirlooms for future generations.

The Manheim Historical Society relies solely on business partners, individual member dues and contributions to support its programs and to maintain its properties.

So, please consider donating to the Manheim Historical Society during ExtraGive 2026!
