Walk the halls where the first president, George Washington, once roamed. The Hermitage House, a National Historic Landmark and museum, consists of a preserved and restored stone house from 1763. This lovely home features several stunning Gothic Revival architectural details, from the diamond-paned windows to the high Tudor arches and gabled roof, as well as a collection of period furniture, clothing, accessories and other attractions on display.

The romantic horse-drawn carriages from Dream Horse Carriage Company help create an evening straight from a fairytale. Ride around Newark in style–choose from traditional carriages and coaches or rustic wagons and surreys. Call ahead to reserve one of the elegant, all-white Cinderella Pumpkin Carriages to really make your special someone’s dreams come true!

Visit the landmark Loew’s Jersey Theatre, an entertainment venue that hosts numerous community events, live performances and film screenings on its large stage and single-screen theater. One of the five Loew’s Wonder Theatres, this Baroque/Rococo building underwent several changes since it first opened in 1929 but is currently being renovated and restored to its original design with a few technological upgrades.
