USGS Topo · Published 1950About this map
Nuremberg and the surrounding anthracite coal country sit at a geographic crossroads where Luzerne, Schuylkill, and Columbia counties meet. This 1950 survey details a landscape defined by the parallel ridges of Beaver Mountain, Buck Mountain, and Green Mountain. The Pennsylvania railroad winds through the narrow corridor of Black Creek, serving a string of industrial settlements including Rock Glen, Gowen, Fern Glen, and Derringer.
