About Bedford County
Keystone Foundry Museum
The Keystone Foundry Museum is a non-profit site owned and operated by
the Hopewell Senior Center.
The Keystone Foundry Museum is located in Hopewell, Bedford County,
Pennsylvania. In an area once containing an abundance of blast furnaces,
foundries, and other iron industry sites, this old complex is a lone
survivor.
The Foundry today is just the way workers left it one day in 1935, never
to return again. Originally the Foundry opened in 1857, as a repair shop
for the Huntingdon and Broad Top Mountain Railroad. The Foundry and
Machine Works produced mine cars, tools and equipment, stoves and
numerous cast iron and brass objects for the coal mining industry in
Bedford, Fulton and Huntingdon counties.
HOURS OF OPERATION: June - September, Saturday & Sunday 1 to 4PM. For
groups and/or special arrangements please call
(814) 928-5111 or 928-5322.
Directions: Follow State Route 26 north to the Hopewell Bridge and
continue on Route 915 for .6 of a mile to Fulton Street. A sign on the
right points to the Foundry, easily visible on the left.
