Via these resources, YCHT can interpret more than 250 years of York's history on all levels (political, cultural, social, religious, industrial, agricultural) and in all educational formats (lectures, exhibits, publications, programming, online). The breadth of its collections allows YCHT to place York County history within the larger context of state and national historical trends. YCHT's mission benefits the community and visitors through cultural enrichment, pride in heritage, and preservation of that heritage for future generations as well as aiding the County's economy with increased visitation.

Police Heritage Museum, Inc.

York, Pennsylvania

History, Specialized

The Police Heritage Museum grew out of one officer's desire to know more about the history of the York City Police Department. The officer's large personal collection of law enforcement artifacts, and the knowledge he gained during his search, became the impetus for the museum. Late in 1994 a core group of individuals met to discuss the incorporation of a police museum. It was obvious the museum would provide community enrichment through preservation, education, and presentation of the important role law enforcement has played in community history through maintenance of peace and order, thus ensuring community growth and prosperity.
