About The Historical Society of Mount Lebanon

The Historical Society of Mount Lebanon runs a History Center on Washington Road, across from Southminster Church. Its mission centers on gathering, safeguarding, explaining, and sharing the story of the community. Visitors can see rotating exhibits, such as the current Friday Night Lights display about the community around Lebo football games. The society also offers tours, lets groups and reunions book appointments, and maintains digitized photographs and research resources. It is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and membership brings a quarterly newsletter, program flyers, collection access, and discounts on tours and programs. The society is also raising funds to bring the 1932 Pirsch Engine No. 3 fire engine to its building.
