Group & School Tours

School Group Main

The York County History Center’s museums offer tours for groups of 10 or more with discounted admission rates. Self-guided visits and docent-guided tours are available by reservation.

History and social studies teachers can bring students in for tours, allowing them to take advantage of a wide variety of programs designed to enrich children’s learning and classroom experiences.

Scout groups, church youth groups and summer campers should also have this as a must-visit destination to learn about York County’s history.

Trained docents and education staff lead groups through History Center sites to explore farming and manufacturing history at the Agricultural and Industrial Museum; colonial history at our Colonial Complex sites; the history of firefighting at the Fire Museum.
