Founded in 1790 as Aketown, Williamsburg is the oldest borough in Blair County, with a motto that says it all: "Small Town, Big History." It's also home to Indian Rocks and Table Rock. We offer same-day appliance repair in Williamsburg, along the Frankstown Branch of the Juniata River.
German immigrant Jacob Ake founded the town in 1795 on a formal grid plan centered on a public square at High and First Streets. Williamsburg's Historic District spans three distinct eras — the 1830s canal boom, a 1870s railroad branch line, and a 1905-1944 paper mill period — each leaving its own mark on the borough's homes. Today the old rail bed is the Lower Trail, a crushed-limestone path that runs right along Williamsburg's edge.
The oldest homes cluster around the original town square, some tracing back to the canal and early railroad eras.
Homes built after 1905, following the paper company's arrival, tend to have more standard early-20th-century layouts.
Properties along the old rail corridor, now a popular walking and biking trail, sit close to the Frankstown Branch of the Juniata River.
