Mack Trucks Historical Museum

One of the original sightseeing buses built by Jack and Augustus Mack in the first decade of the century is in the Museum. The gas-operated, open-air bus carried up to 26 tourists at a time around the streets and sights of Chicago in the summer and New Orleans in the winter, courtesy of the Higgins Tour Company. In 1925, the bus was returned to Mack when it was bought from Higgins and put on display. You can see a 1911 Mack Jr. that shared the streets with horse-drawn wagons as it made its rounds delivering dry goods and produce. It’s the final truck design attributed to the Mack brothers before they sold their company to investors in 1911. Then there’s the 1918 AC model, one of 4,100 built for World War I. Although there’s no bulldog on the hood of this early Mack truck, it was the AC that earned the name while it was busy dodging bullets and trudging through the mud in France. The truck’s unique blunt-nosed design reminded British troops of their own bulldogs. So did its tenacious ability to get through anything with the supplies needed at the front. This museum will treat truck enthusiasts to all of these … and more.

From this site, General George Washington and men of the Continental Army and militia crossed the Delaware River on Christmas night 1776 and marched to Trenton, New Jersey.

Washington Crossing Historic Park preserves and interprets for citizens and visitors the site at which General George Washington planned and executed his daring crossing of the Delaware River on December 25, 1776, leading to victory in the Battle of Trenton and turning the tide of the Revolutionary War, as well as the social and economic history of this important location.

Wharton Esherick Museum

In the decade before he died in 1970 at the age of 83, Wharton Esherick of Paoli, Pennsylvania, was heralded by the national art and design community as the “Dean of American Craftsmen.” It was an accolade not previously bestowed upon an American artist and an indication of the unique nature of Esherick’s work and influence. Ironically, much of his career was spent in relative isolation; a lone artisan pursuing his own vision of high-art craftsmanship during a period when hand craftsmanship was generally held in low regard by American culture. Ultimately, Esherick’s work helped lead to the renaissance of the 1960s that re-established hand craftsmanship as the popular and highly-valued activity it is today.

Stoudt’s Brewing Company

Stoudt’s Brewery is Pennsylvania’s first micro brewery, located in the Lancaster County borough of Adamstown. Stoudt’s Brewery was started in 1987 by Ed and Carol Stoudt, both of whom desired to own a restaurant, bakery, antique shop, and a brewery together. This was realized with the creation of Stoudt’s as it includes a restaurant, a bakery, one of the East Coast’s largest antique shops, as well as the brewery itself. The complex also includes even more antiques as well as gourmet coffee, kettle corn, jewelry, floral arrangements, robots, and arts and crafts at Stoudtburg Village.

Yuengling Brewery

Founded in 1829 by David G.Yuengling, Yuengling is recognized as America’s oldest brewery. The family of beers brewed includes porters, lagers and ales that have quenched the thirst of loyal customers for nearly two centuries. For over 175 years each recipe has called for both American six row and imported two row barley malt along with a combination of Cluster and Cascade hops. Coupled with longer aging times, each of these craft-brewed beers offers its own unique appearance, aroma, taste, and mouthfeel. This home town brewer has the distinction of being a regional brewery without sacrificing flavor to appeal to the masses. Unique tours of this National Historic Landmark are offered daily and on special weekends. There is a free tour and even a free sample at the end of the tour. Situated along historic Mahantongo street, the Yuengling brewery even has a gift shop and museum.
