Historic Bethlehem Museums & Sites (HBMS) brings to life three centuries of American history, telling the story of a small town with a legacy of great influence, from its founding as a Moravian community in 1741, to the rise of Bethlehem Steel as an industrial giant and the city's recent designation as part of the nation's newest World Heritage Site, Moravian Church Settlements–Bethlehem.

HBMS is an Affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution; part of Historic Moravian Bethlehem, a National Historic Landmark District; and a permanent partner in Moravian Church Settlements–Bethlehem, a World Heritage Site.

Historic Bethlehem Museums & Sites appreciates the opportunity to work with journalists near and far to share Bethlehem's historic stories. If you are a member of the media and wish to connect, we'd love to hear from you.
