Where Lititz Begins

Lititz, just nine miles north of Lancaster, PA, sits tucked quietly into the bosom of Mother Earth’s fertile fields and underground limestone rivers. The sound of horses’ hooves clatter along the tiny streets, the town’s locals busily sweep their sidewalks. Hands rise in greetings, smiles cross faces as neighbors pass each other on the streets. Mothers and their children feed the fat ducks as they float down the park’s stream. This scenario, played over and over since the early 1700s, still happens every day in Lititz, PA. Lititz, you see, is the hometown everyone wishes were theirs!

The Lititz Historical Foundation seeks to tell the stories of Lititz history – from 1756 until today. Through our museum, Johannes Mueller house, gardens, and year-round events, we invite you to engage with and learn more about this gem of Lancaster County.
