A 2010 photograph of the section of the Gratz History Mural featuring a portrait of Simon Gratz (1773-1839), the founder of the town of Gratz.
The portrait is based on a photograph of a bust of Simon Gratz at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia.
On May 30, 2005, a 75-foot wall mural entitled “A Walk Through History” was dedicated in the Community Building in Gratz, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, commemorating 200 years of Gratz history and recognizing the people from the past and present who together have made Gratz “a place to call home.” A small portion of the mural is pictured above.
