Demuth Tobacco Shop

Demuth Tobacco Shop

Take a step back in time when you walk through the door of the Demuth Tobacco Shop.

Founded in 1770 by Christopher Demuth, the tobacco shop was passed down through the family for more than 200 years. It is the oldest continuously operated tobacco shop in America. In fact, Demuth’s Tobacco Shop is still in the original building where the company started.

In the 1920’s noted Lancaster architect Emlen Urban designed the interior and exterior as the shop appears today.

The shop sells a range of premium cigars, pipes, cigarettes and accessories including Demuth brand cigars, snuff and pipe tobacco. And the staff is always willing to answer questions.

While visiting the tobacco shop, tour the adjacent home of internationally known Lancaster artist Charles Demuth.
