Founded in 2006 to interpret the history of the region in Maryland and Pennsylvania drained by Antietam creek.

The Antietam Historical Association page is AHA's social-media outlet for dissemination of historical information and images, for announcing AHA events, and for recognizing the accomplishments of AHA and its fellows. The album "Picture of the Month" is its most popular feature.
