Dey Mansion Gardens



Dey Mansion Gardens is located in Wayne, New Jersey. The Georgian-style house was constructed between 1740-1750, and served as the Revolutionary War headquarters for General George Washington (the first president of the United States). The grounds feature a blacksmith shop, herb and vegetable garden, a formal garden, the house, and a picnic area.

The house and gardens are open Wednesday through Sunday from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM and Sunday from 10:00 AM to noon. Tours are available. Cost of admission is $1.00 per person.

    1. When I was a kid, I didn't care too much about historical places, but now that I'm an adult, I find them fascinating.

  5. I suppose this place would be just as interesting for the buildings as the gardens.
