Honoring America's Past

Across the river from Gloucester County is the county of York, Virginia. Situated on the Virginia Peninsula between the York and James Rivers, York County is 27 miles long and only 6 miles across at its widest point. The York River supplies its namesake county with 200 miles of coastline.

Rich in history, the county is home to the port of Yorktown, the seat of government and site of the final battle of the American Revolution on October 19, 1781.

These days there's still plenty to see and do in Historic Yorktown. Take in the galleries and antique shops of Historic Village. Stroll along Riverwalk Landing, and enjoy a steaming cup of espresso or a Ben & Jerry's ice cream treat along the way. Take a picnic to the beach and enjoy an afternoon swim. Visit the battlefields where America's history was made.
