Lots to see, learn and appreciate about this historical gem. The real stuff too, not recreations like at a lot of other historical sites. Something for all ages. Kids under 16 are free. Adults $15
Great place to take friends and family to see the work and lab of Thomas Edison. This is the location of where audio recording was invented, film recording was invented and many more things. This place is very important in the history of the world. Tons of exhibits and great tour guides. Worth the visit.
I'm in love with this place. Absolutely amazing! It's a New Jersey hidden gem. Stayed for a couple of hours with my husband and son there. Were amazed by Edison's talent and factory.
A large historic center where you can see a ton of the inventions. My favorite part was visiting Thomas Edison's personal library. It was extremely ornate, beautiful, and inspiring. You truly felt he could walk in any moment and get to work.
It was awesome to see how much space and items they were able to save and preserve. Definitely worth a visit and you can then drive down the road to see his actual home in a private community.
