adventure time at the mercer museum!

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Mercer began collecting pre-industrial hand tools and other implements of the past. He believed that the story of human progress and accomplishments was told by the tools and objects that people used and saw these time-honored crafts slowly disappearing from memory.

Made of poured-in-place concrete, the museum was completed in 1916 to house Mercer's vast collection of early American objects and artifacts. In addition to tools, it displays furnishings of early America, carriages, stove plates, a gallows, antique fire engines, a whaleboat, and the Lenape Stone. The Spruance Library, which houses historical research materials, is located on its third floor.
