When the Swedes came - Pennsylvania's history
Before the Europeans founded their first settlements in
this area, numerous Indian tribes lived here. Over time,
however, these were exterminated by the settlers and other
Indian tribes.
The first European settlers in this area were Sweden.
Today the largest part of the population with approx. 28% of
German descent. England was in control of this area. In the
17th century, William Penn traveled with a group of Quakers
from Europe to this area to found a new colony. The English
crown made him governor of the only Quaker state. The area
was later named Pennsylvania.
The state became famous when the United States
Constitution was signed in Philadelphia in 1787. Today's
Independence Hall quickly became a national and
international attraction. Pennsylvania was the second state
to join the new union.
During the Civil War, Pennsylvania became famous again
through the Battle of Gettysburg.
Pennsylvania is now internationally known for Groundhog
Day. Every year on February 2nd, a major festival of this
kind is celebrated in various locations in the United States
and Canada. The largest of the festivals is celebrated in
Punxsutawney. This location became known in 1993 with the
film "And the marmot greets you" with Bill Murray.

Your Pennsylvania vacation trip begins in one of the
nation's most historic cities and the birthplace of the
United States: Philadelphia. The city is home to
Independence Hall, the famous Liberty Bell and the National
Constitution Center. For those who love art, the city of
Philadelphia is also a great destination as the Philadelphia
Museum of Art is among the largest art museums in the United
States. More importantly, the skyscrapers and shops make it
an incredible destination for shopping.
Pennsylvania is located in the eastern United States and
is one of the thirteen founding countries. The mighty
Eriesee borders in the north, in the west of the country you
can see the low mountains of the Appalachian
Mountains. Hilly country and deciduous forests shape the
landscape of this state. While mining and the steel industry
are the main economic factors in the west
around Pittsburgh , the hilly countries in the east are more
dominated by farmland. Pennsylvania is also known for the
Marmot Day, which is traditionally celebrated on February
2nd.
Harrisburg has just under 50,000 inhabitants and is the
capital of Pennsylvania. The beautiful city with the old
buildings is located on the Susquehanna River and offers
many shopping opportunities. The city can also be reached by
plane.

Attractions in Pennsylvania
Philadelphia
Ideally, the journey begins in Philadelphia, where
the Independance Hall is located, where the founding fathers
signed the Declaration of Independence in 1776 and the
American Constitution eleven years later. Other historic
monuments are the Liberty Bell and the National Constitution
Center.
Art fans will also get their money's worth here because
the Philadelphia Museum of Art is one of the largest art
museums in the United States. The Reading Terminal in the
middle of the city offers large market halls with fresh
regional and homemade specialties. Numerous ethnic
restaurants are also located here. Since Pennsylvania is the
cradle of the nation, the state motto is accordingly virtue,
freedom and independence.
Pittsburgh
The second major city is Pittsburgh, which is best known
for sports and the surrounding river landscapes. However,
the city is increasingly developing into a modern location
for companies in the environmentally friendly energy and
technology sector. The Laurel Highlands extend just outside
the city.
The area around the disused Great Allengheny Passage
railway line and the surrounding river areas invite you to
explore the landscape by hiking or cycling. Visitors
interested in architecture should not miss the works of art
by the famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright.
Gettysburg National Park
Educational tours and group programs provide information
on one of the most important battles of the American Civil
War, which took place here in Gettysburg. Visitors learn
about the important role of U.S. President Abraham Lincoln,
who delivered his famous Gettysburg speech in the middle of
the battlefield.
Pennsylvania Wilds
The term Pennsylvania Wilds describes a picturesque and
varied landscape that spans eleven counties. Each of these
counties has its own character and historical heritage. Here
there are more than a million hectares of nature
reserves and extensive mountain and forest landscapes.
Visitors can expect a fascinating biodiversity and
a landscape criss-crossed by rivers and lakes that invite to
sporting activities. In between are hospitable towns that
give visitors an authentic glimpse into the lives of the
people who call Pennsylvania home.
Valley Forge National Park
This park with the historical monuments allows an insight
into the emergence of the national continental army of the
American War of Independence.
Hershey Park
This destination, which is interesting for families, is
not only known for its chocolate production, but also for
its connected amusement park with numerous rides.
Pocono Mountains
This gently rising and forested mountain landscape is in
the northeast. 150 hidden small lakes and idyllic
villages enable a relaxing holiday away from the
metropolises and contact with hospitable residents.
Strasburg Rail Road
This lovingly and extensively restored former railroad in
Amish County is not a worthwhile destination for railroad
fans. This area is so popular that it is designated as a
tourist region. There is much more to experience here than
just a train, because physical well-being is also taken care
of. The themed trips range from crime games to a culinary
well-being experience.
