Even after 400 years, a visit to Jamestown is still an adventure, but not as challenging as it was for settlers of the first permanent English colony in America in 1607. The story is complex, and most fully experienced by a visit to two compelling attractions. At Historic Jamestowne, site of the original 1607 settlement, explore the Glasshouse to learn about America’s earliest industries, see ongoing archaeological discoveries of the fort and view thousands of artifacts unearthed on display in the Nathalie P. and Alan M. Voorhees Archaearium. At Jamestown Settlement, explore a world-class living history museum that re-creates life in the Jamestown colony.
Beautiful! It was cold when we went but it was so surreal walking through one of America’s oldest settlements. Will definitely come back when it’s a bit warmer. The kids also did the Jr. Ranger program and got their badges. They thoroughly enjoyed walking through and seeing something they’re learning about in their History class.
