Landis Valley Museum, Lancaster County, Pa. Lancaster takes especial pride in the Landis Valley Museum. Here you may see over 200,000 items that, until recently, have never before been accessible to visitors. Spread before you is a complete picture of the life of the Pennsylvania German farmer from 1710 to 1900. Exhibits are housed in five buildings, typical of old-time country life. You will see furniture, farm and household tools, a large gun collection, beautiful grandfather clocks by Ford and Schreiner of Lancaster, Amish wagons and carts, a valuble collection of Family Bibles and old books - among them Benjamin Franklin's Almanac and volumes from the pre-Revolutionaly press of the Ephrata Cloisters.
