of the "Fancy" Pennsylvania Dutch, will take you through
fertile countryside where hundred year old Pennsylvania German barns
are decorated with a unique folk art design, referred to as hex
signs. Also called Barn art, the hex sign area includes all of Berks
and Lehigh, and portions of seven adjacent counties. The heaviest
concentrations are found in the area of Old Route 22-The Hex Tour
Highway. This is a great and unique tour that focuses on the culture
this area is built upon. A must for anyone interested in the heritage
of Berks County.
