Mayor Michael Rinker and the members of the Knox Borough Council welcome you to our website.
Knox Borough is located in Clarion County and known as the “Horsethief Capital of the World”. Knox gained this reputation through the operations of Sebastian “Boss” Buck who was the most notorious horse thief in US history. He and his gang continuously moved a string of stolen horses along a trail from Kentucky to Maine. While Boss Buck spent much of his time riding this trail, his residence and headquarters was reputedly located near Knox Borough.
**************************************************************************************************** Annually, Knox Borough has a week-long festival called the "Horsethief Days Celebration". Highlights of the celebration include a car cruise, a main street parade, local bands with a variety of music from Christian Rock to Country, dances, sidewalk sales, and lots of good food and refreshments. A softball tournament, a community picnic & vesper service will kick off the celebration each year.
A big thanks to the Horsethief Committee and all the groups that participated in planning this year's celebration.
