Description:
Perkasie Historical Society, founded in 1954, strives to help preserve the history of Perkasie Borough. In addition, our volunteer organization relies on the support of the community as it cares for the four historic venues: the South Perkasie Covered Bridge, the Perkasie Carousel, Perkasie Museum, and the Stout Family Cemetery.
The Perkasie Historical Society Museum is located in the former Trolley Station, which was built in 1912.
Visitors can also enjoy a self-guided walking tour of historic Perkasie, which includes Perkasie Old Towne, Menlo Park, and South Perkasie.
