About Claysburg

Claysburg is a Blair County community on the Allegheny Front, with Interstate 99 on one side and Blue Knob rising nearby. Its local story has several layers: the Pennsylvania Railroad connected the valley to larger markets, and Blue Knob hosted Claysburg Air Force Station until the site was deactivated in 1961. The Claysburg History Center keeps those chapters in circulation through railroad, military, and community exhibits. Claysburg-Kimmel School District is based here, with its elementary and junior-senior high campuses on Bedford Street. Claysburg is the kind of place where a mountain, a rail line, and an old Air Force station all turn up in the same conversation.
