Visit Buccleuch Mansion

321 Easton Avenue, New Brunswick, New Jersey 08901
Nestled along the Raritan River in the heart of Buccleuch Park, a former Colonial Estate, our extraordinary museum offers a variety of tours, exhibitions and programs spanning over 280 years of American history. We're known for our magnificent collection of authentic Colonial, Federal and Victorian furnishings and artifacts depicting life of the mansion's inhabitants from 1739 to 1911 showcased in our permanent and rotating gallery spaces. 

The building has been owned and maintained by the City of New Brunswick since 1911. The Jersey Blue Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution has upheld Buccleuch Mansion as a house museum since 1915. Docents from the Jersey Blue chapter guide visitors through the museum and share fascinating stories, reveal historical origins of the home's many artifacts and bring history into vibrant life. 

Visitors and guests are asked to make a suggested donation at the door to help with the operations and ongoing upkeep of the mansion and our collections.
