Visit the last remaining free standing barracks from the French and Indian War in America and stand in the foot steps of Washington where he won his first victory during the Revolution.

This is where Washington defeated the Hessians after crossing the Delaware and suprising the Hessians early on Christmas morning in 1776.

Here you can see their museum, see how the officers and the enlisted men lived, learn about the long history of the barracks and get an IN-DEPTH education into the medical practices during the Revolutionary War.
