Where Maine's Story Begins...

As one of the earliest English settlements in the country, York became the seat of government for the Province of Maine and thrived as a center of maritime commerce. Through the centuries, York has been a destination for people seeking refuge in its natural beauty and pace of life. The culture and history of the area continue to captivate visitors to this day. Come to Old York and let us engage you in coastal Maine’s heritage, for an afternoon, a day, or a lifetime.

Old York’s historic buildings open for the 2021 season, July 4 through October 30.

Reserve your space today! Tickets available HERE.

For the health and safety of all of our staff and visitors (many of whom are unvaccinated children), we kindly ask that you wear a mask while inside any of our buildings. 

Upcoming Events

Admission to our historic buildings is FREE this summer! Capacity is limited, and we urge you to reserve tickets online HERE before you come.

Also, join us for one of our outdoor guided walking tours this summer! These specialized tours cover a variety of topics, and must be reserved in advance. Please visit the Upcoming Events section of the website for a full schedule.
