About Lehighton, Pennsylvania

Lehighton is a borough of 5,248 people in Carbon County, on the west bank of the Lehigh River. In 1746 Moravian missionaries from Bethlehem, farther down the Lehigh, built a mission station here for Lenape converts and named it Gnadenhütten, German for cabins of grace. It was the first settlement by white people in what is now Carbon County.

During the French and Indian War, Native allies of the French attacked the mission on November 24, 1755. They burned the village and killed 11 missionaries, and only four of its sixteen residents got away. Once the raiders had gone, the remains of the dead were gathered from the ashes and buried in the graveyard that is now Lehighton Cemetery.

  • A marble slab from 1778In 1778 a wide marble slab was laid over the mission graves in the Lehighton graveyard. Later a small white obelisk standing on a sandstone base was added beside it. Together they record the names of the people killed at Gnadenhütten and tell the short story of the raid.
  • Mills on the LehighIn the 19th century the Lehigh River's water power turned Lehighton into an early industrial town. Foundries, stoneworks and car shops stood alongside automatic-press works, a meat-packing house and mills and factories turning out silk, lace and shirts. The town held 4,629 people in 1900 and had grown to 6,615 by 1940.
  • The railroad's repair shopsThe Lehigh Valley Railroad kept a major repair facility in Lehighton for many years, and it became the area's largest company, with several thousand workers fixing, running and maintaining the line. After World War II the railroad restructured and moved the shops elsewhere, so some families had to leave to find work. Passenger trains stopped running in 1961.
  • The race for county seatWhen Carbon County was formed, Governor Porter named commissioners to choose its county seat. Lehighton and Mauch Chunk both wanted the honor, and the commissioners picked Mauch Chunk. Lehighton did become the home of the yearly county fair, which the Carbon County Industrial Society holds there.
  • A drive-in since 1949Lehighton's Mahoning Drive-In Theater first opened its gates in 1949. Crowds thinned when multiplex theaters spread in the 1970s and 1980s. Then in 2014 its managers decided to show mostly older cult films and B movies instead of new releases, and the drive-in has grown popular again since.
