Pennsylvania Route 796 (PA 796) is a state highway in Chester County, Pennsylvania. The route runs 5.8 miles (9.3 km) from PA 896 in New London Township north to PA 41 in Londonderry Township. PA 796 heads through rural areas with some development along its route. In Jennersville, the route crosses Baltimore Pike and has an interchange with the U.S. Route 1 (US 1) freeway.
