Bedford Township

Bedford Township blends agricultural calm with a frontier-era legacy in a way that reflects its position in Pennsylvania’s Ridge-and-Valley Appalachians. Surrounding the borough of Bedford, it lies near the Raystown Branch of the Juniata River, where mountain routes helped make the area a longstanding crossroads. Fort Bedford was established by British forces in 1758 during the French and Indian War, and the Fort Bedford Museum in downtown Bedford interprets that period. Old Bedford Village, nearby, presents relocated historic buildings in a living-history setting. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Bedford County and Pennsylvania.
