Step Back In Time This Weekend In Monmouth County

This weekend visit Monmouth's historical sites for free.

MONMOUTH COUNTY, NJ — Take a trip back in time this weekend by visiting one of Monmouth County's historical sites during the Weekend in Old Monmouth annual event.

A Weekend in Old Monmouth is a two-day event during which 49 Monmouth County history sites open their doors to visitors and waive all admission fees.

For those who are unable to attend in person, a virtual tour has been created that features all 49 tour locations in a linear, place-based narrative with photos. Because of geolocation technology, each tour location is now a "story point" on an interactive map. You can either read the narrative in order or interact with the map to explore one of the tour routes.
