KEEPING POCONO HISTORY

Located in one of the oldest buildings in the Pocono Mountains, The Pocono Indian Museum is a fun place to spend the afternoon. Through displays of artifacts, tools, and weapons, the history of the Delaware Indians comes to life before your very eyes. You can take a 30-minute tour of the museum if you wish, and history buffs will find it interesting that the building that houses the museum once served as a safe house for slaves making their way through the Underground Railroad.
