I'm thinking of taking a trip to Pennsylvania this summer with the primary goal of seeing some historical sites. So far on my list is Gettysburg, Valley Forge and Braddock's Field. Possibly might also head north to the Watkins Glen area.

What are some other can't miss historical sites in Pennsylvania or nearby?

I'd check out Antietam. I went Gettysburg, then Antietam basically back to back.

Strictly speaking, Antietam is Maryland, not Pennsylvania, but in reasonable proximity. You probably know this.

Jim Thorpe is very cool. Also Scranton…maybe the coal mine
