Lancaster County dates back to the 1700's.
In fact, at one point the city of Lancaster was the largest inland city in America.
And it served as the nation's capital for one day during the war of 1812.
There is a heritage of history and learning throughout the Pennsylvania Dutch Country that has been preserved for
us
today through numerous museums
and historical sites. Have fun exploring!
