about Historic Richmond Town:

Colonial Williamsburg and Plymouth Plantation don't have a monopoly on historic villages. Historic Richmond Town offers 27 buildings and over 40 points of interest at its 100-acre complex and park.

The museum covers three centuries of life on Staten Island, from the birth of the village of Richmond in the 1690's to the present day. Folks in period costumes give demonstrations and converse with visitors.

Families can take a shuttle bus to Decker Farm, which hosts seasonal activities like pumpkin picking.

Birthday parties with an old-fashioned "feel" can be held in Richmond Town. Check the website for details.

See our calendar for special events, especially around the holidays.
