The historic Dills Tavern is located in northern York County in the town of Dillsburg, Pennsylvania. It's no longer operating as a tavern but you can visit the hisotric building and take a guided tour. You can find tour information HERE. Tours are offered by appointment April through November.
On the property you'll find the 200+ year old stone building (the Tavern) and several out buildings. It was built in 1794 by John Dill, the grandson of Matthew Dill. You can read a little bit of the history on the website or look for the historical marker located on the site.
Property has been placed on the National Register of Historic Places by The United States Department of the Interior. The property was acquired for the Dillsburg community by a gift from Charles T. and Lucille C. Vogelsong August 2nd, 2001 to preserve the historic building for future generations. It's managed by the Northern York County Historical and Preservation Society.
We visited the property and just walked around checking it out. We plan on returning this summer to take a guided tour. In the meantime, we wanted to share a few photographs that we took during our brief visit.
