Landis Valley Museum, Living history museum in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, US.

The Landis Valley Museum spans 100 acres featuring historic buildings, period exhibits, traditional farmsteads, and demonstrations of Pennsylvania German rural life from 1740 to 1940.

Brothers Henry and George Landis established the museum in 1925 on their family farm, combining their collections before transferring ownership to Pennsylvania in 1953.

The museum maintains the Heirloom Seed Project, preserving genetic lines of vegetables and flowers cultivated by Pennsylvania German farmers before 1940.

Visitors can explore various exhibits, attend workshops on traditional crafts, participate in seasonal events, and learn about historical farming techniques through guided tours.

The collection includes original Conestoga wagons and Pennsylvania longrifles, representing significant technological developments from Lancaster County during the 18th and 19th centuries.
