About Hanover

Often recognized as the "Snack Food Capital of the World”, Hanover is home to both the Utz Potato Chip and the Snyder’s pretzel. We are much more than “Snack Town”, though! Hanover is also home to a world-renowned horse breeder, rich civil war history, craft beer, beautiful architecture, and more!

Nestled in both York and Adams Counties, Hanover is conveniently located within minutes of York, Gettysburg, and Baltimore, Maryland. Hanover is experiencing a lot of great change! The restoration of the downtown area is bringing lots of growth to the Hanover area, through lots of new small businesses and residents.
