Henricus Historical Park is a living history museum located in Chester, VA, dedicated to re-creating the historical journey of the Citie of Henricus in 1611. Visitors can experience life in the second successful English settlement and Virginia Indian site of Arrohateck, exploring major milestones such as the establishment of the first English college in the New World and the introduction of tobacco as the first cash crop.

Operated as a non-profit organization in partnership with the Henricus Foundation and the counties of Chesterfield and Henrico, Henricus Historical Park offers educational programs, special events, and immersive experiences that pay tribute to the early settlers and Virginia Indians who played a significant role in shaping the region's history over 400 years ago.
