This book shop has thousands of stories to tell, with its own dating back nearly 300 years!
"This bookshop has been in this community since 1745," said Carol King, retail manager at the Moravian Bookshop.
What started as a gathering place to share biblical texts soon began to grow and include other denominations besides the Moravians. The Moravian Book Shop adapted to the times and lived through the creation of the United States of America, wars, economic depressions, pandemics, and now the age of the Internet.Once spanning an entire block, the Moravian Book Shop was known for its candy counter, deli, linens, fine clothing, ghost stories, and more.Now, many of those items can be found in their own independent stores along Main Street.
