August 08, 2017

The Mt. Wood Castle Overlook, located across the street from the Mt. Wood Cemetery in North Park, has long been the subject of a mystery well-loved by many Wheeling natives. Time and again, stories have circulated discussing the tall tales behind the strange structure and the doctor – Andrew Jackson Harness – who built it. Miranda Heitz, a senior at Bethany College, is a 2016 and 2017 Community Foundation Civic Leaders Fellow. She has worked at the Wheeling National Heritage Area Corporation both as a fellow and an independent intern to focus on research on the Mt. Wood Cemetery/Overlook and Stone Church Cemetery.
