About Mount Pleasant
Tucked into the hills of Jefferson County, Mount Pleasant has held onto its small-town charm since Quaker settlers founded the village in 1803. It quickly grew into an important hub for the abolitionist movement and a key station on the Underground Railroad. Today, much of the village is recognized as a National Historic Landmark, where original 19th-century brick homes and the massive 1814 Quaker Meeting House still line the quiet, walkable streets.
The local historical society keeps that heritage active with community events and an annual historic tour that opens preserved buildings, private homes, and local farms. For anyone looking for a peaceful setting with deep roots, Mount Pleasant offers a relaxed, rural pace of life just a short drive from Steubenville and the Ohio River.
