On November 20, 2022 the East Brandywine Historical Commission hosted a presentation called “The History of Steel,” with a guest speaker from the National Iron & Steel Heritage Museum in Coatesville. Beginning in the early 19th century, the iron and steel industry played a key role in transforming both Pennsylvania and the nation. A female entrepreneur, Rebecca Lukens, began managing the mill in 1825 and created a successful iron-making operation on the Brandywine. Learn more about Luken’s Steel Company and how this powerful regional industry shaped our community.
