York lies along Codorus Creek in south-central Pennsylvania, where rolling Piedmont terrain extends between the Susquehanna River and the Appalachian foothills. Founded in 1741, it served as a temporary seat of the Continental Congress during the American Revolution, and the Articles of Confederation were adopted here in 1777. Downtown’s Central Market, housed in a historic market building, remains a gathering place for regional food producers and shoppers. The York County History Center traces the area’s civic, industrial and military past. Browse other webcams across Pennsylvania to place this setting in a wider geographic context.
