Liberty Hall Museum

At Liberty Hall, they aim to deepen visitors' understanding of history and nature through the lens of the people who lived and worked in over 250-year history. They strive to engage with their broader community by providing entertaining and educational programming that will inspire curiosity about the world around them and how that world has changed over time.

Liberty Hall stands at the center of the American Revolution and academic excellence. Home to trailblazing governors, members of Congress, senators, assembly persons, philanthropists, and entrepreneurs, its plush gardens have spurred civic change and social innovation for centuries. Inhabited by William Livingston, New Jersey's first elected governor and a signer of the United States Constitution, the 14-room Georgian-style home evolved into a 50-room Victorian mansion.

Liberty Hall began welcoming the public to experience its history and participate in its future in 2000. The museum has hosted educational programs, community events, civic ceremonies, and holiday celebrations.

The site is not just home to the stories of public servants and bold industrialists; its magnificent grounds also include an elegant English parterre garden and maze. Visit to view the scenery or explore the collections of antique furniture and decorative artifacts collected by the seven generations, including the Livingston and Kean families, who called Liberty Hall home.
