HARRISBURG, PA – Rep. Tim Twardzik (R-Schuylkill) is pleased to announce $33,485 in grant funding has been awarded through the Keystone Historic Preservation Construction Grant program to support important restoration work at the historic Yuengling Mansion in Schuylkill County.

The funding will be used to restore the mansion’s original 1913 wrought iron fence and replace deteriorated copper gutters that have caused water damage to parts of the property. Additional repairs will address damaged woodwork, including restoration of the original carport.

“These restoration efforts will preserve the historic integrity of the Yuengling Mansion and prevent further deterioration,” said Twardzik. “Protecting Schuylkill County’s heritage is important for current and future generations, and I’m proud to support and raise a lager for this investment in one of our region’s most iconic landmarks.”

The Yuengling Mansion is a key historic site in the region and these improvements will ensure it remains a treasured landmark.

The Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, the official history agency of the Commonwealth, administers the Keystone Historic Preservation Construction Grant Program, which supports the rehabilitation, restoration, and preservation of publicly accessible historic resources listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places.
