With over 500 acres of history, natural beauty and family fun, Washington Crossing Historic Park preserves the site where General George Washington crossed the Delaware River on December 25, 1776. The 500-acre Washington Crossing Historic Park hosts thousands of visitors every year who come to see the point from which a battered and dispirited American army launched a counterattack that reversed i
ts long losing streak, preserving its will to fight. The park also contains restored colonial buildings, Bowman’s Hill Tower, Revolutionary War soldiers’ graves, stone memorials, picnic pavilions and historic collections. The recreational areas of the park are open for use from dawn to dusk all year, weather permitting. Tours and programs are offered by the non-profit Friends of Washington Crossing Park.
