Overview
Join Friends of Lebanon Cemetery for a walking tour of York County's largest and one of the oldest Black-owned cemeteries. Listen to authentic narratives of the lives of those interred within these Hallowed Grounds.
From the celebrated to the humble, you will learn about their struggles, hardships, passions, and contributions to York's history.
In addition, the Paved Over Prominence Project™ Walking Tour embarks on a journey through the annals of York City African American history, exploring sites that once thrummed with life, culture, and spirit but have since been abandoned, demolished, or obscured by the relentless march of progress. This expedition traverses a variety of locales, from vibrant neighborhoods and sacred places of worship to bustling workplaces and former businesses, each with its own story of resilience, community, and struggle against the backdrop of a society that often sought to marginalize them.
