Lancaster Trust Company is a historic bank building located at Lancaster, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. It was designed in 1910 bu C. Emlen Urban, and built in 1911-1912, in the Beaux-Arts style. It was added to the front of an existing five-story building, built 1889-1890. It consists of the Main Banking Room, Board Room, and vaults, with the basement, lavatories, and passageways include.
