Philadelphia’s First Neighborhood!

Before the founding of Philadelphia, Swedish settlers arrived in 1638, and along with the Lenni Lenape Indian tribe, called Queen Village their home. Claimed to be one of Philadelphia's most interesting places to live, work and play, Queen Village offers a variety of events and meetings that promote restoration of the beautiful town.

Home to some of Philadelphia's most remarkable historic sites, Queen Village offers many landmarks, including the first theaters in the colonies, Clymer Court, the Furnass Building, the country's first naval shipyard, Fabric Row, Sparks Shot Tower, and much more.
