A Revolutionary Town

Yorktown is located in the Hampton Roads region of Virginia and situated between the James and York Rivers as well as the Chesapeake Bay.

Immerse yourself in 300 years of American history during your visit to Historic Yorktown. Stay in a quaint hotel or bed and breakfast nestled among the picturesque streets and paths overlooking the water. Tour 18th century homes, Revolutionary battlefields, and museums. Don't miss the hands-on programs at the American Revolution Museum at Yorktown, which chronicles the last battle that secured our nation's independence from British rule.

Shop at charming art galleries and boutiques, or attend exciting events like a weekly farmers market, art shows, wine festival, and free seasonal concerts. Stroll along the scenic riverwalk, relax on the sand, or swim at a public beach. Take a ride on the free trolley, then march to the beat of the Fifes and Drums during a regular performance.
