Eagle Iron Works and Curtin Village

Curtin Village at Eagle Ironworks is one of Central Pennsylvania's most unique and best-preserved state-owned historical sites. Curtin Village was part of a large iron plantation operated by Roland Curtin and his family from 1810 to 1921. Today, the buildings and grounds are preserved to give visitors historical insights into life as it was in a company town in the 1800s. The site includes: - waterwheel-powered Eagle Ironworks Furnace and 19th-century machines and tools; - Curtin Family Mansion, built in the 1830s, with unique architectural features; it's furnished with period antiques as well as glassware, dolls, toys, clothing, arrowheads; - personal carriage that belonged to Pa. Civil War Governor Andrew Curtin; - iron furnace workers' village. **The historical site is owned by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission and managed by the Roland Curtin Foundation.
