Summit Hill is a historic borough located in Carbon County, Pennsylvania, with a rich heritage deeply rooted in America's industrial revolution. The town played a pivotal role in the anthracite coal mining industry, as it was the site of the discovery of anthracite coal in 1791 by Philip Ginder.
This discovery led to the development of the Lehigh Coal Mine Company and the famous Switchback Railroad, one of America's first railroads, which transported coal from Summit Hill to Mauch Chunk (now Jim Thorpe). The town's cultural identity is strongly influenced by its mining heritage, with many historic buildings and structures that reflect its industrial past.
Today, Summit Hill maintains its small-town character while preserving its significant historical sites and cultural landmarks that tell the story of Pennsylvania's coal mining era.
