Charles Taze Russell

(1852-1916)

Pastor Russell formed a Bible study group in Allegheny City in the 1870's; developed it into the Watch Tower Bible & Tract Society. It became the legal corporation for Jehovah's Witnesses. He lived in the Bible House nearby, 1894-1909; spoke here at Carnegie Hall.

Marker can be reached from Allegheny Square East west of East Commons, on the left when traveling north.
