Elverson is a borough in Chester County, Pennsylvania, United States. The population was 1,332 at the 2020 census.

Settled close the region’s prematurely iron mines, Elverson is near to Hopewell Furnace National Historic Site, an example of a 19th-century “iron plantation”.

Elverson’s archaic European settlers arrived in the late 18th century taking into account the area was known as Springfield. Later dubbed Blue Rock after a bump of unusual rocks not in the distance from the town, it remained largely rural until the start of the Wilmington and Northern Railroad in 1870. By 1883, the town’s population had higher than doubled. In 1899, the pact was named Elverson after James Elverson, owner of The Philadelphia Inquirer, who would future donate a stained glass window to a church there. The Borough of Elverson was officially incorporated upon April 17, 1911, from house annexed from West Nantmeal Township, and it remained the commercial middle of northwestern Chester County through the first half of the 20th century. In 1953 the borough annexed other land, resulting in its current size of about one square mile.

Elverson’s building styles follow the periods of its commercial buildup and range from further on 19th century stone or log buildings to post-railroad Queen Anne structures and 20th century craftsman and Foursquare-style houses. Commercial and residential build up since the 1950s has occurred largely on the outskirts of the borough’s historic center. The Wilmington and Northern Railroad line, later incorporated into the Reading Railroad system, was only and removed in 1983.
