Welcome To Cranberry Township's Website!

Cranberry Township, located in Venango County, Pennsylvania, was laid out in 1806 and officially organized in 1830.  The name was inspired by the cranberry bogs located in the vicinity.  Iron production, coal mining and oil production were the early major industries located in the township.  Monarch Park and the Sibley Mansion were two of the township's most interesting developments of years ago.

Today Cranberry Township is home to a broad range of business and industry.  The township has experienced tremendous economic growth in the last 30 years.  Morrison Park serves the township for recreation, parties, reunions and the annual Cranberry Festival. The Samuel Justus Trail entertains nearly 100,000 users a year from local and far away places.  The Cranberry Mall and our many other businesses are the hub of shopping, dining and entertainment for the local area.  In addition, we are proud to be home to the area's regional hospital, UPMC Northwest.

We have created this web site to better inform our residents, visitors and those wishing to locate in our township.

Thanks for visiting!
