First, get the tickets good for this place, the industrial history museum, and, when open, the Colonial center. Well worth it. The history center is well-done with some very significant artifacts, including a huge display of case clocks, a lot of Colonial items, and some good WWII era items. But, the real gem is the nearby industrial museum, which has a display of Pullman Automobiles, some other historic autos, and a lot of steampunk industrial items that were just pure fun! Very well done. The Colonial buildings were not open due to cold but we could at least walk past and admire them. This entire complex is one of the best American history centers I've visited out of many. Admission to all is $15 per adult. My wife and I plan to go back in better weather to do it again.

I had no idea how much history was preserved in York. A pre-Civil War hotel that Charles Dickens stayed in (and didn't like); a colonial inn with a Revolutionary War connection, wonderful old banks and a water works, and much more. Really a nice place to walk back in time.
