Johnstown Flood
National Memorial


Along with the Johnstown Flood Museum, the Flood Memorial tells the story of the 1889 flood that devastated Pennsylvania. This is known as one of the worst disasters in United States history. Over twenty two hundred people perished in the Flood. To learn more about the park or the story of the flood, please choose the links to the topics which interest you.
