HISTORIC GERMANTOWN IS A PARTNERSHIP of sixteen historical houses, destinations and museums in Northwest Philadelphia that have come together to protect, preserve and share some of Philadelphia's most prized historical assets.Few places in America are home to so many significant historic resources in such a concentrated area. Historic Germantown is recognized as the nation's longest National Historic District that stretches along Germantown Avenue, formerly known as "The Great Road."Truly representative of the Philadelphia experience, HG member sites were situated on the front lines of our collective history, for example - an actual battleground of the revolution, an actual sanctuary from slavery - where everyday people risked their lives and livelihood in the name of freedom. The significance of these sites in American history is indisputable and, in many ways, unequalled.Through its innovative collaborative partnership, Historic Germantown provides a national model for how nonprofits should collaborate to share and leverage resources.
