The Slate Belt Heritage Center, located in Bangor, Pennsylvania, is a historic building that was originally used as the town hall, council chambers, borough offices, and fire department. Saved from deterioration by a group of dedicated citizens, the center now serves as a tribute to the early settlers of the Slate Belt region, showcasing their diverse ethnic cultures through self-guided exhibits and a stunning mural depicting the history of Bangor.

Opened in 2000, the Slate Belt Heritage Center offers visitors a unique opportunity to learn about the slate industry and the rich heritage of the area. With its beautifully restored interior, including hardwood floors and an old town clock tower, the center provides a fascinating glimpse into the past and serves as a hub for history in the Slate Belt.
