Review:
New Wilmington is a charming Lawrence County borough that was originally established in 1863, known for its attractions connected to Pennsylvania's Amish Country.
The borough is home to one of the United States' largest Old Order Amish sects, showcasing lovely attractions connected to the community's traditional rural way of life.
Visitors can explore the historic Caldwell One-Room Schoolhouse, rent cart buggies for exploration of the four-mile Hells Hollow Wildlife Adventure Trail, or traverse the beautiful Banks Covered Bridge, which still sees much foot and buggy traffic today.
Simple Life Amish Tours explore the region's Amish-connected sites, elaborating on their historical and cultural significance. Visitors can also peruse the exhibits of the Lawrence County Historical Society Museum, housed within a beautiful turn-of-the-century mansion, or explore the campus of Westminster College, which is home to a labyrinth for spiritual meditation. Webb Winery offers tastings and tours throughout the year.
