South Jersey possesses a rich, historic past that unfurls with the events of colonial-era America, and continues to unfold centuries after the state’s founding. With so many eras coming and going since its inception, there are a myriad of events that have influenced New Jersey’s development.

Wander back in time to the birth of our nation with a tour of a Revolutionary War battlefield, board a decorated WWII battleship turned museum, and discover safe havens along the Underground Railroad. Blend history with a nature outing on a visit to a centuries-old village and ironworks predating the industrial revolution. 

Whether you’re a history buff or just looking to get a selfie with Haddy the dinosaur, stumble onto something monumental during your next adventure in South Jersey.
