East Jersey Old Town Village comes alive Wednesday through Sunday with historical interpreters presenting the trades and crafts of the 18th and 19th centuries. Visit reconstructed and replica early American Raritan Valley structures at East Jersey Old Town Village for a view into life in the region’s farm and merchant communities.

Buildings include the Indian Queen Tavern, the Farley Blacksmith Shop, the Williamson Wheelwright Shop, the Smalleytown Schoolhouse, the Three Mile Run Church, the homes of early settlers and outbuildings.

Plus, don’t miss the exhibit of artifacts from Raritan Landing, the bustling Raritan River port community that once stood nearby.

During the fall, East Jersey Old Town Village is closed on Rutgers University football game days. See the RU football schedule for more information.
