Adamstown, PA History

Adamstown is a borough in Berks and Lancaster counties in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. The population was 1,203 at the 2000 census. It was initially founded on 4 July 1761 by William Addams on the site of a former village of native Americans, and Addams named the community "Addamsburry". The community was incorporated as a borough on 2 April 1850.

The town promotes itself as the "antiques capital of the United States" because it attracts many antiques dealers and collectors. Ever since the 1960s, the main street has been lined with countless antique shops and auctions where you can find just about anything you are looking for.


Stoudt's Brewery

Stoudt's Brewery is one of Pennsylvania's first micro breweries. It was started in 1987 by Ed and Carol Stoudt, both of whom desired to own a restaurant, bakery, antique shop, and a brewery together. This was realized with the creation of Stoudt's as it includes a restaurant, a bakery, one of the East Coast' largest antique shops, as well as the brewery itself. The complex also includes even more antiques as well as gourmet coffee, kettle corn, jewelry, floral arrangements, robots, and arts and crafts at Stoudtburg Village.

Lancaster County Amish

The farmlands of the Pennsylvania Dutch Country are among the most productive in the nation. But many of the farmers here are different from most Americans; different by choice. For these are the Old Order Amish and Mennonites, also known as the "Plain People".

Our Amish neighbors have been employing horse-drawn power since the days when horsepower had a whole different meaning! In comparison to our fast-paced society, the simpler, family-centered Amish way of life holds a special fascination.

The Amish of Lancaster County, can trace their heritage back hundreds of years.  Despite all the time that has passed and the many changes that have taken place  in out society thte Amish of Lancaster County still live in and work like their forefathers did.  Their family and farms are their top priotities, second only to their religion.

The Amish of Lancaster County are very devout in their faith.   They take seriously the Biblical commands to separate themselves from the things of the world. They believe worldliness can keep them from being close to God, and can introduce influences that could be destructive to their communities and to their way of life.

Today there are over 25 different Amish, Mennonite, and Brethren church groups in Lancaster County,  To keep themselves away from the modern world they don't permit electricity or telephones in their homes. The Amish have long preferred farming as a way of life. They feel their lifestyle and their families can best be maintained in a rural environment.While they do not permit the use of tractors in their fields, these old order Amish groups do use modern farm equipment pulled by teams of horses or mules.

Lancaster County has become a vacation destination for many people all across the country looking to get a glimpse of the Amish culture.
