Heritage Day 2026
Heritage Day is an annual celebration of the history and culture of the Borough of Hellertown and surrounding Lower Saucon Township. The event is sponsored by the Hellertown and Lower Saucon historical societies and the Saucon Valley Conservancy.
Heritage Day 2026 will be held May 16 at two locations: the 1761 Heller-Wagner Grist Mill Complex off West Walnut Street in south Hellertown, and the Michael Heller Homestead along Saucon Creek, adjacent to the Water Street Bridge connecting Hellertown and Lower Saucon Township.
Heritage Day will be expanded in 2026 to honor the 250th anniversary, also known as the semiquincentennial, of the founding of the United States.
Heritage Day parking at the Hellertown Historical Society is limited. Satellite parking locations have been established at Christ Lutheran Church, 69 Main Street, Hellertown; the Saucon Valley School District middle and elementary schools, 2097 Polk Valley Road, Hellertown; and Water Street Park, 90 West Water Street, Hellertown.
