VISITING LANCASTER
Welcome
to Lancaster County
To look even briefly at the history of Lancaster County is to
glimpse illustrious people and important events that are at
the center of Americas development as a nation.
A part of Penns Woods, chartered to William Penn in 1681,
this areas first permanent colony was established soon after
1700 by Swiss Mennonites led by Hans Herr. German Mennonites, French Huguenots, Welsh and English (many of whom
were Quakers) and Scots-Irish soon followed.
Lancaster County was the fourth county named in Pennsylvania, separating from Chester County in 1729. Local Indian
tribes, most notably the Susquehannocks, traded with the
settlers. That properous trade, plus Lancasters strategic location, made it a natural gateway to the West.
More than two centuries later, Lancaster County is not so
much a gateway as a destination in and of itself attracting visitors to its picturesque, fertile farmlands, historic sites,
vibrant arts community, amusements, world-class entertainment venues, restaurants, specialty shops and outlets.
Use this guide to get you started on your visit, and enjoy
your stay in Lancaster County.

LancasterCity
Any visit to Lancaster County must
include a visit to the city of Lancaster,
where a rich history dating to the 1700s
meets a vibrant and sophisticated entertainment and arts scene.
Lancaster was incorporated as a city
in 1818. Its original boundaries, set in
1742, extended one mile in each direction from Penn Square and remained fixed until
a series of annexations began in 1947. Lancaster was
an important 18th-century settlement on the primary
route of westward expansion and a regional center
serving the surrounding agricultural community.
Today, Lancaster City is an architectural gem. Stroll
down any street, in any direction and you will find
historic buildings reflecting different architectural
styles and periods. Youll also find a fantastic art
community with more than 90 art venues, shopping,
over 300 places to dine, and cultural and entertain-

TGIF
FIRST FRIDAY
It all began with First Friday in Lancaster in the
early 2000s. Gay and Dennis Cox had opened City
Folk Gallery on North Prince Street, with the idea of
transforming that block into Gallery Row. First Fridays were an effective way to get people out and
about on Fridays to discover the burgeoning arts
community.
All they had to do was put out a bottle of wine and
some cheese and crackers. If you feed them, they will
come. It suddenly became trendy to take a look at
the art, too.
Years later, First Fridays in Lancaster are still a huge
success. Not only do the art galleries attract people
to check out the art and sample a few tasty bites,
but restaurants, theaters and shops in downtown
Lancaster are thriving as well. It seems the place to
be on the first Friday of any month.
Gallery Row did indeed turn into the destination
that was first imagined, with an ever-growing lineup of galleries that includes Annex 24 Gallery, Arctic
Sun Gallerie, Artisans Gallery, Christiane David Gallery, Cindy Schlosser Gallery on Market, D&J Scott
Galleries, Franz Fox Studios and Gallery, Freiman
Stoltzfus Gallery, Friendship Heart Gallery, Isadore
Gallery, Julia Swartz Art Gallery, Lancaster Galleries,
Liz Hess Gallery, Mio Studio, Pennsylvania Guild of
Craftsmen, Red Raven Art Company, Sohotogo and
Todd Snader Gallery.
And Gallery Row isnt just on Prince Street. Its all

SECOND FRIDAY
On the second Friday of the month, Lititz is the
place to be, even in the rain and in the cold. In
February, Second Friday means the annual Fire
and Ice Festival, with ice sculptures lining the
streets, music and dancing, and the annual chili
cook-off.
In summer and fall, Second Fridays in Lititz are fullfledged festivals, with music, food and shops that
welcome customers who cant get in from 9 to 5.
Nearly all of the downtown shops are open late, with
special events to lend to the party atmosphere.
THIRD FRIDAY
Back in 2007, Ephrata adopted its own Third Fridays a Charm, drawing people to town on the third
Friday of the month.
And downtown Lancaster comes alive with the
sound of music on Music Fridays, every third Friday
of the month. The City of Lancaster Office of Promotion (LOOP), Music For Everyone and Series 42
are hosting a special concert series for 2015 Music
Fridays. During the fall/winter months concerts will
be held indoors, during the spring/summer months,
concerts will be held in Binns Park.
FOURTH FRIDAY
Heading west, communities like Mount Joy, Columbia, Marietta and Wrightsville could hardly ignore the
success of first and second Fridays.
It seemed like a good idea for Columbia to have
its own Fourth Friday, says Cle Berntheizel of Garth
Gallery in Columbia.
So was born Fourth Friday in the river towns of Columbia, Marietta and Wrightsville, celebrating their
history and arts.
On Fourth Fridays from 5 to 9 p.m., restaurants,
shops and attractions open their doors for special
events, tours and exhibits. In Columbia, that includes

Heading north on the river, Mariettas attractions include McClearys Public House, Shanks Tavern, Burning Bridge Tavern and Half Nuts Popcorn Co.
Mount Joy also laid claim to Fourth Friday, with
a variety of themes for each month. Most shops in
Mount Joy stay open on Friday evenings. While summer and fall are the busiest Fourth Fridays, Januarys
Death by Chocolate and Fire & Ice Festival prove that
even chilly weather will bring them out, if its chocolate or ice sculptures.

Towns
LITITZ
Picture a pleasant stroll along tree-lined streets,
with unique attractions, specialty and antique shops,
boutiques, restaurants, coffee shops and museums.
The earliest settlers of Lititz were Swiss-German
Mennonites who in 1710 fled religious persecution in
Europe. They were quickly followed by the Moravians and Amish. They built stone mills, wooden covered bridges and log homes.
Many 18th-century buildings have been wonderfully restored and can be enjoyed as you walk through
town. And dont forget to take some time to relax in
Lititz Springs Park.

Springs Park.

EPHRATA
Ephrata has its roots in a religious community
founded on the banks of the Cocalico Creek in 1732
by a German dissident named Conrad Beissel.
What began as a hermitage for a small group of
devoted individuals grew into a thriving community
of nearly 80 celibate members supported by an estimated 200 family members at its zenith in the mid18th century.
Beissels theology, a hybrid of pietism and mysticism, encouraged celibacy, Sabbath worship, Anabaptism and the ascetic life. The community became
known for its a cappella music, calligraphy known as
Frakturschriften and a complete publishing center,
including paper mill, printing office and book bindery.
The community quickly declined after Beissels
