The Wilbur Lititz is housed in the historic Wilbur Chocolate factory, which was founded in Philadelphia in 1865 by Henry Oscar Wilbur and Samuel Croft. The factory moved to Lititz, Pennsylvania, and became a beloved local landmark, known for its high-quality chocolate products. In 1992, the Wilbur Chocolate Company was acquired by Cargill, Inc. The factory continued operations until its closure in 2016, after which the building was redeveloped into a hotel and luxury condominiums.
