The Hoboken Historical Museum welcomes visitors 6 days a week, showcasing Hoboken's history, diverse culture, architecture and landmarks with exhibits, guest speakers and educational programming in the former Bethlehem Steel Machine Shop at 1301 Hudson St., one of the oldest buildings on the waterfront. Exhibits change every 6-12 months, on diverse subjects, from Hoboken in the 1970s, to the engineering behind the Holland and Lincoln Tunnels, to the history of sweets factories and bakeries to a celebration of Frank Sinatra's centennial. The Museum hosts events nearly every weekend; check our website for details. We also collect and archive artifacts, documents, oral histories and photos relating to Hoboken history, much of which is accessible on our website.

A cute small museum that rotates out exhibits. The best part is the sinatra lounge with documentaries. They could add more exhibits or work. It's a really small space so it's a quick visit.

Very, very, very small. The curator is kind and slightly eccentric, which is to be expected. They basically have maps of the area from back in the day, and a tiny exhibit upstairs which rotates....
