The American Battlefield Trust is partnering with the Princeton Battlefield Society and the New Jersey State Park Service to implement a multi-year plan dubbed “Reimagining Princeton” — an ambitious initiative to restore and interpret Princeton Battlefield State Park.
The American Battlefield Trust, in partnership with the Princeton Battlefield Society, New Jersey State Parks, and other historic preservation groups, are making rapid progress on “Reimagining Princeton” – an ambitious plan to fully revitalize Princeton Battlefield State Park.
This multi-year initiative will ensure that Princeton Battlefield State Park finally receives the world-class interpretation it deserves. At the heart of this vision is the creation of a new Visitor and Education Center that will bring the 1777 Battle of Princeton to life and provide immersive experiences for recreational tourists, school groups, and history enthusiasts.
Support the Princeton Visitor & Education Center
This center will help visitors understand one of the American Revolution’s most pivotal moments while providing modern amenities, educational programming, and interactive exhibits that cannot be installed in the current visitor contact station in the historic Thomas Clark House. With the 250th anniversary of the battle approaching in early 2027, this project is essential to ensuring Princeton Battlefield can welcome and inspire the next generation of students, scholars, and visitors.
To make this vision a reality, the New Jersey Legislature needs to commit to funding the Visitor and Education Center in the state’s FY2027 budget.
Tell NJ Lawmakers: Fund Princeton Battlefield
We’re asking dedicated supporters like yourself to sign a letter urging state decision-makers to include this critical investment in the upcoming budget. Please join us in advocating for the Visitor and Education Center to ensure the inspirational story of the Battle of Princeton is preserved for generations to come.
With great appreciation,
