Tour this National Historic Landmark!
Welcome to the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum located in Historic Weston, West Virginia. This National Historic Landmark served as a sanctuary for the mentally ill in the mid-1800s. This 160-year-old asylum holds fascinating stories. It includes Civil War raids and a gold robbery. There are also stories about the “curative” effects of architecture. The efforts of determined individuals helped better the lives of the mentally ill.
