Spotlight On
Eckley Miners’ Village
We visited Eckley Miners' Village in Weatherly and got a glimpse of NEPA's anthracite coal mining past. At Eckley guests can see what it was like to live in a coal patch town with the help of reenactors that bring the experiences of miners and their families to life.
