This is one of the places that General George Washington stayed…

While his men were freezing….

Morristown National Historical Park commemorates the sites of General Washington and the Continental army’s winter encampment of December 1779 to June 1780, where they survived through what would be the coldest winter on record. The park also maintains a museum & library collection related to the encampments & George Washington, as well as items relating to pre- and post-Revolutionary America.

  1. WAS THE BUILDING THERE DURING THE OPENING OF THE WAR????? OR WAS IT BUILT AS A MUSEUM LONG AFTER????????????
    I INTEND TO FIND OUT. I HATE BULLSHIT

  2. I drank in the same bar as George Washington (Fraunce’s Tavern), but only because they had $2 beers on Tuesday nights. Otherwise they wouldn’t get me in the door. (not my kind of crowd)

  3. Most people fail to realize that the first Rothschild debt bank was created during Washington’s watch. So, think about that before you include Mr Cherry Tree on your best presidents list.
