757 Latrobe Crabtree Rd

Latrobe, Pennsylvania, packs a remarkable amount of American history into just three square miles. Tucked about 38 miles southeast of Pittsburgh in Westmoreland County, this small borough sits near Chestnut Ridge and the Loyalhanna Creek corridor, giving it a distinctly wooded, small-town character while keeping commuters within reach of a major metro. Saint Vincent College anchors the educational scene locally, and the broader Latrobe area draws steady attention as the long-standing summer training home of the Pittsburgh Steelers. The birthplace of both Fred Rogers and Arnold Palmer, Latrobe carries a cultural legacy that most towns its size simply cannot match. The banana split was invented here in 1904, a claim the community celebrates each year at the Banana Split Festival.
