1999 Map of Orwigsburg
USGS Topo · Published 2001About this map
The Schuylkill River and its tributary, the Little Schuylkill River, anchor this late twentieth-century landscape of south-central Schuylkill County. The map details the developed core of Orwigsburg and the surrounding township of Brunswick, where the transition from industrial extraction to residential and recreational land use is evident. Evidence of the region’s anthracite heritage appears in the north with a Strip Mine near Middleport, while the southern portion of the sheet shows a shift toward community features like the Drive-in Theater and Golf Course.
