About Weissport, PA

The town was founded in 1792 by Col. Jacob Weiss. The area was located between Lehighton, Parryville, and Longrun. Soon after, the town itself was established and the first wooden bridge over the river to the town was built in 1805, along with the first post office, taverns, banks, and stores all by 1812. Within its first twenty years the town was established as a vital part of the canal industry, specializing in the restoration, building, and repairing of boats along the Lehigh Canal which ran parallel to the Lehigh River.
