Brookville
Revisit the turn of the century when you spend time in historic Brookville,
the county seat.
Listed on the National Register of Historic Towns, Brookville features many
painstakingly restored Victorian homes and buildings built when the
lumbering industry was at its peak in the late 1800s. Take a self-guided
walking tour through the 90-acre historic district to truly enjoy the
beautiful architecture. Each year in December, the Victorian Christmas
Celebration will take you back to the days of Charles Dickens with the
sights and sounds of the era.
To learn more about the history of the area visit the Jefferson County History Center located on Main Street just one-half block east of the courthouse in the preserved Nathan Greene Edelblute building. The History Center offers exhibits, public programs, a shop, research facilities and more.
In the summer, the Laurel Festival held in the Downtown area celebrates the
blooming of the Mountain Laurel in the laurel fields on the outskirts of
Brookville. Other outdoor recreational opportunities include several
community parks and golfing at one of two local courses. |
