About Petersburg
Petersburg, Indiana is the county seat of Pike County and was founded in 1817, just one year after Indiana became a state. Pike County was the first county established in Indiana. Just 17 years prior, only Indians and buffalo inhabited the area.

Petersburg stands on the historic Buffalo Trace and Lincoln Heritage Trails. Both historical routes are recognized in Indiana.
At least one home in Petersburg, The Goodlet-Morgan Home, was a stop on the Underground Railroad. Many a slave passed through our community on their way to freedom.

The community landscape began to take a permanent change in the 1960's when our rich coal deposits allowed for the construction of two power generation stations just north of Petersburg at the forks of the White River. The Indianapolis Power and Light Company opened a power plant that has grown since then to employ around 300 workers and produces around 1800 megawatts of electricity. The Petersburg Generating Station provides 75% of the power to the city of Indianapolis. Indiana's Rural Electric Cooperative constructed the second plant with the addition of the Hoosier Energy, Frank E. Ratts Generating Station. This station produces 200 megawatts of electricity that is used by electric cooperatives throughout Indiana.
