GREENE CO. TOURIST SITES
"Where life is a little slower... and a whole lot better."
This page is put together with help from a brochure about Greene County that can be found at
the first I-79 (northbound entrance) Welcome Center.
This visitor's center is one of the finest in the nation
and will provide you with more information about Greene County and Western Pennsylvania.
In the courtyard, to the right of the center, is the
Miner's Monument. It serves as a memorial to miners who
died in a mine explosion directly beneath the monument.
The memorial features a likeness of famous mine labor leader
John L. Lewis. On the reverse side, there is a roll of
Greene County Miners.
