Historical Society of Rockland County

The Historical Society of Rockland County invites you to join us for a bus daytrip to Mount Gulian and Washington's Headquarters State Historic SiteOur first stop is Mount Gulian Historic Site in Beacon, whose history spans more than 300 years. As part of our special tour of the 1730s reconstructed homestead, Dutch barn, and grounds, we’ll don white cotton curatorial gloves to handle artifacts and documents relating to the Verplanck family, the Revolutionary War, and more.

Then we’ll cross the Hudson for lunch at Billy Joe’s Ribworks on the riverfront, followed by a visit to Washington’s Headquarters in Newburgh, the nation’s first publicly owned historic site, which opened on July 4, 1850, to preserve the house General George Washington used as his headquarters in the Hudson Valley for more than sixteen months.
