Basic Information

Welcome to New Philadelphia

New Philadelphia National Historic Site is a newly established unit of the National Park System. The National Park Service is working in partnership with community stakeholders and existing site partners to plan New Philadelphia National Historic Site. During this process, the site will continue to be stewarded and maintained by the New Philadelphia Association, a local non-profit.

 

New Philadelphia National Historic Site is currently open to the public with no scheduled operating hours. Tours can be arranged by contacting the New Philadelphia Association (NPA). The NPA manages a website and social media, an informational kiosk, and an augmented reality self-guided walking tour. The app for the 1/4-mile-long walking tour can be downloaded onto to handheld electronic devices, cost-free, at the kiosk. There are no restrooms, trash receptacles, or services on site, so please plan ahead. Many programs and materials, including a junior ranger program, are not yet available.

A Passport to Your National Parks® cancellation stamp highlighting the site’s association with the National Underground Railroad Network to Freedom is available at the Barry City Hall and Barry Public Library.
