Free Family Day at Historic Huguenot Street in New Paltz

I love history. But as a kid, the history I learned at school didn't hold my interest nearly as much as the historic day trips and vacations that we took with my parents. That's where I could feel history come alive and imagine myself living in that era. Here's a way that you and your family can get a taste of history for free.

Enjoy free admission to Historic Huguenot Street in New Paltz on Sunday, June 16. This includes access to the historic houses and exhibits. Bring a blanket and bagged lunch and have a picnic on the grounds. Enjoy a day with the family as you learn about the families who founded New Paltz.

60 minute tours are available every half hour beginning at 10:30 am, with the last tour departing from the DuBois Fort Visitor Center at 3:30 pm. Tours have a max capacity of 12 guests at a time and that they fill up quickly, so visitors should plan to arrive at least 15 minutes before the start of their desired tour time.
