History
Zelienople was named for the eldest daughter of Baron Dettmar Basse (1762–1836), whose chosen name was Zelie (her given name was Fredericka) who in 1802 came from Frankfurt Germany, and purchased 10,000 acres of land in Butler and Beaver counties.
He designed a village and built his own private residence, a three story castle, complete with towers, turrets and battlements, named "The Bassenheim",which was destroyed by fire in 1842.
Baron then sold 5,000 acres of his land to George Rapp, a Bavarian religious leader, who founded the village of Harmony which is close to Zelienople. Baron came to be known as "Dr. Muller". The title of "Doctor" was conferred upon him who earned a degree. Baron was regarded as an intelligent man, and during the Napoleonic era and represented Frankfurt as an ambassador to Paris. He returned to Germany in 1818, leaving his business to his son-in-law, Philipp Passavant.
His son opened the first Zelienople store in 1807, and managed it for 41 years, until he gave it to his son, C. S. Passavant. By 1826, Zelienople started to grow and expand and there were fifty houses and three churches. The population grew to 387 by 1870 , and 20 years later in 1890, it had grown to 639. The first passenger train arrived to the town in 1879, substantially increasing the growth and commerce. By the year of 1880, the American Union Telegraph Company established an office in Zelienople.
Zelienople business and commerce supported the local farmers from its agriculture community, because there was no viable means of transportation. In 1840 Zelienople was incorporated as a borough. In 1878 a railroad was built through Zelienople. From this time there has been moderate expansion of industry, residences, and local government. There has been a volunteer fire department since about 1850. A full-time Borough Manager was hired in 1994.
Zelienople is also known for its historical Eichholtz Building. The Eichholtz family played a historical and transformational role in Zelienople.
Culture and events
Each year, Zelienople hosts a Fourth of July parade through downtown. The Strand Theater is a performing arts center on Main Street that has been restored, and hosts concerts and films for the borough and surrounding area.
For the past 44 years, one of the major annual events is the town's summer Horse Trading Days Arts and Music Festival. Crafters, vendors, entertainers and tourists are drawn from the entire tri-state area to participate in the family-oriented event that features concerts, games, contests, shopping, food, and a 5-mile run/walk event. The festival funding comes from local residents, businesses, the police and fire department, Lancaster Township, and the Zelienople borough.
