National Historic Landmark- Rittenhousetown Historic District

An important industrial community that spans the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, Rittenhousetown is the core of a village that grew up around the first paper mill (1690) in British North America.

At one time the village included over 40 industrial, agricultural, institutional, and domestic structures; today, six houses and a barn survive.
