PA Historical Markers

PA Historical Markers brings together every keystone-shaped sign in Pennsylvania; from Revolutionary War battlefields to Underground Railroad stations, from author birthplaces to industrial milestones. Over 2,500 markers placed by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, all in one app, all readable from your phone.

• Browse every marker on a fast, clustered map of Pennsylvania
• Tap any marker pin to read the full inscription
• "Nearby" tab sorts every marker by distance from your current location
• Mark markers as visited and build your own collection over time
• Works offline

Private by design:

• No analytics, no tracking, no advertising
• Your location is used only on-device to show what's near you — it never leaves your phone
• Your "visited" list lives entirely on your device

A perfect companion for road trips, history buffs, classroom field trips, and weekend wandering across Pennsylvania.
