GET PITTSBURG

Coal mining, Little Balkans, fried chicken and Pittsburg State University are synonomous with Pittsburg, a community of 20,000 in Southeast Kansas.

Settled early by immigrants from the Balkans region in Europe who came to work in the Pittsburg-Weir Coalfield, at one time 35 different languages could be heard while walking through downtown Pittsburg.

Today, fried chicken, German slaw, German potato salad and the Little Balkans Days celebration pay homage to the history and heritage of Pittsburg.
