Although the Yorkville Historical Society is unable to have our usual holiday tour of historic homes and sites, we welcome visitors to York on the weekends in December to see beautifully decorated exteriors of homes and sites. There will be beautiful lights, garlands, wreaths, bows, greenery, and other personal touches. Luminarias will be lit on Saturday evenings throughout the month of December at many of the homes.
To view these beautiful homes, we recommend you start at one of these locations in York.
- At West Liberty Street and South Congress Street, we encourage you to start with the beautiful courthouse. Continue north on Congress Street through the wonderful downtown area past Moore Park and to the roundabout where you can take Hillside Lane to Kings Mountain Street. At Kings Mountain Street turn left. Make sure to see the homes on Broad Street. (Turn left on Broad Street, left on Hillside Lane, then left to get back on Kings Mountain Street.) Continue and then make a right on Wright Avenue. Then turn left at West Madison Street, and return to North Congress Street.
- Start at the corner of East Liberty Street and College Street. Take College Street heading south toward East Jefferson Street. Turn left at East Jefferson Street, then left at Church Street returning to East Liberty Street, where turning left will bring you back to the center of town.
