The Historical Society of Mt. Lebanon re-formed about 11 years ago to interpret and preserve the history of Mt. Lebanon which extends more than six square miles.
Derived from Cedar of Lebanon trees brought to Bower Hill Road by the Rev. Joseph Clokey around 1850, the name Mt. Lebanon became official when a post office, serving less than 100 people, opened in 1855.
After years of meeting in the Mt. Lebanon Public Library, the historical society recently opened its history center at 200 Lebanon Avenue in Mt. Lebanon. "What We Wore" is the theme of this first exhibit featuring donated or loaned clothing dating back to 1890.
