Discover Maine's ancient beginnings

York has been inhabited by Native Americans for thousands of years. When it was colonized in 1624 by Charles I of England, a number of edifices were constructed. They still stand and serve as a memorial to this history. The best preserved are part of the Old York Historical Society. Come discover an old jail, a museum of the decorative arts, and a collection commemorating the maritime history of the region.
