We preserve and share the historic places, landscapes, and heritage of southeastern Pennsylvania. We offer a research library, archives, and exhibitions at our Center for Pennsylvania German Studies, two historic houses, and gardens open to the public. Historic Trappe’s mission is to welcome and engage with diverse audiences and make the story of the people, places, and events that shaped the Trappe area accessible within the broader context of state and national history. We collect, preserve, exhibit, and interpret artifacts that chronicle the Trappe area’s rich and diverse heritage.
