The Boyertown Area Historical Society was established in 1972 to preserve the history of the Boyertown area. The Society's building was constructed in 1902 by local industrialist, George Unger. In the 1920's, the Archdiocese of Allentown purchased the property and established St. Columbkill Roman Catholic Church in the home. In the early 1950's, a stone facade and additional stained glass windows were added to the building. The area served by the Historical Society comprises the boroughs of Boyertown, Bally, and Bechtelsville and the townships of Colebrookdale, Douglas Berks, Douglas Montgomery, Earl, New Hanover, Upper Frederick, and Washington. New members are always welcome. Information on joining the Society is available under Membership . |
