This website redesign was in collaboration with Monarch Media Solutions. We'd like to thank the brilliant team at NYCHAPS for all of their hard work preparing the new written and visual content for the website.

The Northern York County Historical and Preservation Society (NYCHAPS) was formed in 1984 to promote and encourage the study, collection, and preservation of the historical and cultural heritage of the area within the Northern York County School District in Dillsburg, Pennsylvania which is located halfway between Harrisburg and Gettysburg.

NYCHAPS hosts a wide variety of historical programs and cultural events throughout the year at their two main properties, Dill’s Tavern and the Maple Shade Barn. Take a look at our upcoming events and mark your calendar for a trip back in history.
