About this map

Wernersville State Hospital and the nearby Bethany Orphans Home stand as prominent institutions in this 1943 landscape, a period when the Pennsylvania countryside was dotted with specialized religious and social facilities. The region is defined by a series of prominent summits, including Eagle Peak and Cushion Peak, which rise above the surrounding farmland of Heidelberg and South Heidelberg. The Reading railroad provides a critical artery through the southern valley, connecting established settlements like Womelsdorf, Robesonia, and Sinking Spring.
