Downingtown

Among Pennsylvania communities, Downingtown stands apart for its setting on the East Branch Brandywine Creek and its place on the historic Philadelphia and Lancaster Turnpike corridor. The borough developed around a crossroads in Chester County, where the old turnpike linked Philadelphia with Lancaster; its course is now followed in part by U.S. Route 30. Brandywine Creek is a defining thread through this part of southeastern Pennsylvania and the wider Brandywine Valley. Downingtown is also the original home of Victory Brewing Company, founded here in 1996, adding a modern brewing chapter to the town’s identity.
