About Nemacolin Castle

Nemacolin Castle sits on Front Street in Brownsville, Pennsylvania, and is run by the Brownsville Historical Society. The castle grew up around an early trading post on the Monongahela River, and later additions, including a crenellated tower, were built during the Victorian era. Visitors can join guided tours of the interior, private group tours for larger parties, and school field trips. The site also hosts an annual autumn ghost walk along Front Street and winter Christmas tours, plus community events through the year.
