About This Place
The Johnson Ferry House is a colonial-era farmhouse located within Washington Crossing State Park in New Jersey. The house served as a staging point for the Continental Army after it crossed the Delaware River on December 25-26, 1776.
Revolutionary Significance
The Johnson Ferry House was a working farmstead adjacent to the ferry landing where Washington's army came ashore on the New Jersey side of the Delaware. Officers used the house to coordinate troop movements and plan the march to Trenton. The house is furnished with period items and interpreted to reflect its appearance at the time of the crossing. It is one of the few surviving structures directly associated with the events of December 25-26, 1776.
