Washington Township Historical Society

The Washington Township Historical Society (WTHS) will launch its new <a href="https://morriscountyhistory.org/event/washington-township-dutch-valley-walking-tour/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Washington Township Walking Tour</a> on Saturday, May 2nd, offering visitors an opportunity to explore the history of the township’s most significant early settlements.
Guided tours on May 2nd will depart hourly starting at noon through 4:00 p.m. from the WTHS Museum at 6 Fairview Avenue in Long Valley. Each tour will last approximately 30 to 40 minutes and will highlight the origins of the village, early settlement priorities, and notable historic structures - including the site of a stone fortress once visited by George Washington.
The event is part of the Morris County Historical Society’s county-wide walking tour series and serves as the official kickoff for WTHS’s new self-guided tour experience. Beginning Sunday, May 3rd, visitors will be able to access the tour digitally via mobile phone or through printed booklets available at the museum.
Free parking for the tour will be available at Zion Lutheran Church, located at 11 Schooley’s Mountain Road, a short distance from the museum. Guests are encouraged to take time to explore the museum’s collections before or after their scheduled walking tour.
“This tour offers residents and visitors a meaningful way to connect with the people, places, and stories that shaped our community,” said Brian Bumpus, vice president, WTHS. “It is also an exciting step toward expanding our heritage in Washington Township.”
