Two Taverns is a small community located in Adams County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. It's known as an unincorporated community, which means it's a place where people live together but it doesn't have its own official local government like a city or a town. You can find Two Taverns on Pennsylvania Route 97, which is also called Baltimore Pike. It sits right between the towns of Gettysburg and Littlestown.

During the important Battle of Gettysburg in the American Civil War, Two Taverns played a small but significant role. A Union Army cavalry general named Hugh Judson Kilpatrick and his soldiers were sent to this community. They were preparing for a charge at a place called the South Cavalry Field.
