It is part of the State College, Pennsylvania Metropolitan Statistical Area. The population was 613 at the 2010 census.[1] History{{more citations needed|date=November 2009}}The town was founded by Aaron Levy in 1786, and named for him.[2] Its orderly planned and aligned streets were designed that the town might one day be the county seat. This, however, never occurred due to the lack of water. The current county seat is Bellefonte. Aaronsburg is home to two churches (Salem Lutheran and Reformed), three cemeteries, a historical museum, and a pottery shop. In 1949 a pageant was held to celebrate Aaronsburg's unique history and namesake. Aaron Levy, a Jewish merchant from Philadelphia, presented members of Salem Lutheran Church with a pewter communion set as a gift. This unusual gesture inspired many, and 50,000 people descended upon Aaronsburg to commemorate it. Attendees included Ralph Bunche, Cornel Wilde, and, later, Ronald Reagan. A short film and a book "The Aaronsburg Story" by Arthur Lewis were written about this event. The Aaronsburg Historic District was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[3] GeographyAaronsburg is located in eastern Centre County, in the northwest corner of Haines Township. It is bordered on the west by the borough of Millheim. It sits in the Penns Valley at the southern base of Shriner Mountain. Pennsylvania Route 45 passes through the town, leading west into Millheim and then on to State College, and east to Lewisburg on the Susquehanna River.
