When planning your visit to CCHS, please be advised that the Mosteller parking garage located at Chestnut and Walnut Streets is closed for the construction of a larger parking facility. Many parking options are still available for your use. CCHS' front door is just steps away from the Bicentennial parking garage, located on the corner of High and Market Streets. You can walk directly to CCHS or chose to enjoy the historical sites you will pass along the way. Once you arrive, our front desk staff will be happy to provide you with a mini tour sheet for your return. Weekday visitors between 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. can find open meters at the Church and Chestnut Street lot (number 10 on the map below) or at the Market and Walnut Street lot or the Gay and Walnut Street lot. Free parking at all meters and lots is available weeknights after 5:00 p.m. and on weekends. Alternative parking information can be found at the West Chester Business Improvement District's website: Parking in the Borough and a Map. There is plenty of metered parking on the streets surrounding CCHS, and don't forget, we make change for the meters! Open Wednesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Plan Your Visit
