Pen Argyl Borough in Northampton County, Pennsylvania, is a historic town of 3600 residents nestled at the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountain and the Appalachian Trail. Established in 1853 with the discovery of slate, the town's name originates from Welsh and Anglo-Saxon words related to slate rock. Initially flourishing due to quarrymen from Cornwall, England, the area was incorporated in 1882 and became known as the Slate Belt. Today, Pen Argyl remains steeped in history, with a working slate quarry and a tradition of pasty baking brought over by the quarrymen. Visitors can still enjoy authentic pasties at Mr. Pasties in town. The highlight of Pen Argyl is the iconic Dentzel carousel at Weona Park, acquired in 1923 and featuring stationary wooden animals. This carousel, a rare gem, offers rides during the summer park season, delighting locals and visitors alike. Generated from the website content
