While you’re on site, tour the Pennsylvania Longrifle Museum, housed in the historic Henry Homestead, with its fascinating collection of over 100 original, hand-crafted Pennsylvania long rifles and arms, as well as many of the tools from the 18th and 19th centuries used to make these historic weapons. The museum is currently displaying an impressive 18th c. Horn Object Collection on loan from Tim and Terri Lubenesky, along with new displays of Henry family artifacts, including some of their personal firearms. The Pennsylvania Longrifle Museum and our Museum Gift Shop will be open for tours on Saturday 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Sunday 12 noon to 4:00 p.m.
In addition to the Henry Homestead (once an 18th-century log cabin), the Boulton Historic Site includes the 1832 J. Joseph Henry House, an
ambitious Philadelphia townhouse built on the Bushkill Creek. Five generations of the Henry family lived in this home from 1832 to 1989, filling it
with musical instruments, books, tools, paintings, furniture, and numerous other personal belongings.
The J. Joseph Henry House and Summer Kitchen will be open for tours on Saturday 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Sunday 12 noon to 4:00 p.m.
