The Moravian Historical Society museum and historic site preserves, interprets, and celebrates the rich culture of the Moravians. 

Established in 1857, the Moravian Historical Society is the third oldest historical society in Pennsylvania. The museum offers permanent and changing exhibitions, as well as a gift shop. We are open daily from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. or by appointment (except major holidays). The Moravian Historical Society stewards two historic buildings on its 3-acre site: the 1740-1743 Whitefield House and the 1740 Gray Cottage. These buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The museum provides outstanding educational opportunities for those interested in history, religion, art, and music. Many of the items on exhibit are one of a kind or extremely rare.

We serve visitors from the greater Lehigh Valley and from around the world.
