The East Whiteland Township Historical Commission

The East Whiteland Township Historical Commission has been instrumental in identifying historic properties and in spearheading efforts to protect the Township’s historic resources. Although many of these resources are located in developed areas, future development and change could continue to threaten historical sites. Integration of these structures into the community’s changing landscape is the key to preserving our historic resources. Learn more about the commission here.
