We enjoyed the tour. We booked ahead, made it very easy. They took us to a theatre room to watch a short introduction, then took a short walk within view of the Delaware River as we learned about the Crossing. One of the key events turned the tide of the war in America's favor, encouraging troops to join and rallying colonists support. A must stop, about 40 min from Philly. Book a Turo for a day. It's worth being there.
Visited this park several times in the past. Yesterday was the first time I went on Christmas. Washington crossed on that day to attack Trenton. A very massive crown turned out along with many reenactors. Driving in the area was a bit of a challenge. I did have to park about a mile away and then walk. But that’s was fine.
Wonderful Visitor Center! Very informative with a film to view and a gift shop. There are a number of Monuments directly outside with easy access to the Delaware River. Free parking lot directly across the street.
I am a history teacher, and this place was a must visit! The museum adds a perfect touch to this historical location. My students were very impressed when I returned and showed them the pictures.
It is a nice small piece of history, commemorating the crossing of the Delaware river. This is where our revolution could have ended/died. Through God's grace and George Washington's leadership, they made a surprise attack, at Trenton and Princeton. Reviving moral and the Patriot spirit before going into winter quarters.
