The Catoctin Furnace Historical Society, Inc., commemorates, studies, interprets, and preserves the rich history of this pre-Revolutionary industrial village, including the architecture, cultural landscapes, lifeways, and foodways of the workers. Working in conjunction with Cunningham Falls State Park, the Catoctin Furnace Historical Society celebrates, studies and preserves the history of this important 18th through 20th century industrial site. In the heart of the village, the Collier’s Log House and the Museum of the Ironworker have been carefully restored by the Society. An interpretative trail connects the furnace area to the Museum of the Ironworker and the center of the village. The history of the Catoctin Furnace village continues to be an important part of the life blood of this vibrant community and we invite you to explore it with us.
