Review:
Also known as the Weston State Hospital, the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum is a psychiatric hospital that was in operation between 1864 and 1994. The building it's housed in is the largest hand-cut stone building in the country, but this isn't why visitors come. The asylum has a dramatic history that includes Civil War raids and a terrible period of overcrowding, and visitors can learn all about its fascinating past by taking a guided history tour. If you're at all curious about the building's haunted past, you can also take a spooky two-hour paranormal tour.
