| Gethsemane Hall is a very unique structure,
not just for York but for Pennsylvania in General. Described as
Neo-Norman in design, it is essentially a mini-castle, complete
with towers and battlements. The stone structure, which falls
within the Richardson Romanesque Style, was built in 1918 as a
Masonic Temple after the local Masons purchased the Old York
Post Office next door.
