On a recent trip to Scranton, I stopped in Bethlehem, PA to visit an old friend from college. He is a high school history teacher and showed me many historic sites in and around his hometown. It was fascinating to tour this city and see so many parallels to my hometown of Lititz, PA. Both places were settled in the 1700s by Count Zinzendorf as Moravian communities. Don’t ask how I remember this bit of trivia from elementary school! Probably that unique name!
Here are some of the things I saw and experienced on this springy Saturday:
Lovely park by the river
Unique door handle on the Moravian Church
Beautiful old stained glass church window
Suspension bridge in Riegelsville, PA built by same builders as the Brooklyn Bridge in NYC
