A 23-acre National Historic site built in 1772 by New Jersey’s first governor, William Livingston, Liberty Hall Museum at Kean University chronicles more than 240 years of American History. The museum also houses extensive collections of furniture, ceramics, textiles, toys and tools owned by seven generations of the Livingston and Kean families. The Firehouse Museum, built in 2004, houses three antique fire engines, including a rare 1911 American LaFrance Metropolitan Steam Engine.

Our mission is to keep early American history alive through re-creating and interpreting the activities of daily life on a farm in the period 1740-1820.  Our goals are to teach, provide understanding, stimulate curiosity and encourage lasting interest in the time period.
