The Tracks Used to Raise the Barrels

The Tracks Used to Raise the Barrels

There are metal tracks running along these stairs. These tracks could be used to guide wine casks or barrels, when they were being transported between the surface and the cellar. Economy was the third settlement started by the Harmonist Society, and is now listed on the National Register of Historic Properties. The site is located in Ambridge, Pennsylvania. For more information about the Harmonist Society’s settlement at “Oekonomie,” visit the Old Economy Village website.
