Dear Society Members and Friends;

In 2026 the Northampton Area Historical Society continued our display at the Siegfried Railroad Station that focused on the history of churches in the Northampton Area. We also feature a display of artifacts of the businesses of Kreidersville in Allen Township.

This year being the 250th Anniversary of our Declaration of Independence we are working on a display of events and documents leading up to the Declaration it's acceptance in 1776 and the aftermath of Revolution and the Constitution.

Our newsletters are sent to our members in April, July and September. If you want to get them in the mail, please join us by becoming a member. A form is available on this webpage.

Please visit the Siegfried Station on any of the public hours which occur on the 3rd Sunday of each Month from May through October, from 1:00-4:00 P.M.  Please check back to get the times for those openings.

Please be sure to visit the station to view these exhibits. If you cannot come at our scheduled times, Group tours are available by appointment year-round, Call me at    610-262-8198 or Larry Oberly at 610-570-5083.
