Charleroi, Borough in Washington County, Pennsylvania, United States.
Charleroi is a borough situated along the Monongahela River in Washington County, Pennsylvania. The town stretches along the waterway and covers a small area within the county.
The borough emerged in the late 1800s when a land company established the first glass manufacturing plant, followed shortly by formal incorporation. This industrial founding shaped the town's early development.
Belgian immigrants named this place after their industrial homeland city in Europe, and their glass-making traditions became central to local life.
Visitors will find local government services and schools serving the community here. The area has local roads and straightforward access for travelers by car.
The local glass plant once produced a widely known product line, and the factory shaped the town's economic life for decades. That industrial heritage remains an important part of the place's identity today.
