Historic Germantown

Historic Germantown, located just minutes from Center City, is where one of Philadelphia's only Revolutionary War Battle was fought; where the first-ever American protest against slavery was written; and where one of the few remaining houses on the Underground Railroad still stands. United by a common mission to celebrate the community's fascinating cultural heritage, Historic Germantown provides knowledge and resources to preserve Germantown's historic sites, interpret them to visitors and incorporate them into the life of the local community.

Purchase the Historic Germantown Passport, which allows the bearer one visit to each site over the course of one year. Passports can be purchased at any of the sites ($25 for individuals or $45 for families).
