We are honored to serve as your host community and hope that your unique walking tour of Harrisburg is both enjoyable and rewarding. From Native American occupation dating back nearly 10,000 years to its earliest days as a colonial outpost, the Union Army’s largest training camp during the Civil War, and a major industrial power into the mid-Twentieth Century, or continuing today as the Heart of Pennsylvania’s focal point for commerce, government, the arts and entertainment, Harrisburg has been in the forefront of this state’s and nation’s growth for many centuries.
