Just 20 minutes northwest of Center City, you’ll find the Germantown neighborhood, one of Philly’s oldest settlements and now home to preserved historic homes, Black cultural landmarks and a key stop on the Underground Railroad.

This spring and summer, from June 12 to August 29, 2026, experience nine of the community’s impressive sites — all for one affordable price — with the return of the Historic Germantown OnePass.

Visit hidden gems like a completely intact 18th-century schoolhouse, the site of the Battle of Germantown (with buildings onsite still bearing visible artillery wounds) and the Underground Railroad spot where family legend says Harriet Tubman laid her head.

New for 2026: The multi-site pass remains valid for the entire 12-week window of the program, offering one-time entry Fridays and Saturdays from noon to 4 p.m. at each participating attraction — for a deep discount. Check each site’s website ahead of your visit, as some also offer admission during normal operating hours.

Tickets are $43 for adults (ages 14 and over), $28 for youth (ages 6-13), and seniors (ages 65 and over), and free for children five and under.

Participating Sites

  1. Cliveden: an 18th-century estate that played an important role in Philly’s only Revolutionary War battle and tells the stories of those enslaved individuals who once lived there
  2. The Colored Girls Museum: an internationally recognized museum housed in a 140-year-old Victorian home, showcasing the everyday contributions of Black women and girls
  3. Concord School House: an intact school room from 1775 and one of the oldest cemeteries in Philadelphia, dating back to 1693
