Catoctin National Park Blacksmith Shop Demonstrations at the Blacksmith Shop in Camp Round Meadow. Before the days of mass production, every community needed a skilled blacksmith. The smithy forged nails, and hardware, sweated wagon rims, shod horses and repaired broken metals implements. The Blacksmith Shop played a vital role in the Catoctin Recreational
Demonstration Area. Hardware and tools needed to build the cabin camps were manufactured on this forge, actively used by the National Park Service for over 40 years. Now the forge is fired to show visitors this vanishing art. Our volunteer blacksmith will demonstrate and explain how metal is heated and shaped into useful and decorative objects. The Blacksmith Shop is located in Camp Round Meadow
on Manahan Road. Please call the Visitor Center at (301) 663-9388 for further information and specific directions or visit our website at www.nps.gov/cato for directions to Camp Round Meadow. |
