Welcome to our web site!

 

The Sayreville Historical Society was founded in 1974. It has adopted as its Motto “Preserving the past to serve the future” and aims to promote an interest in history, focusing especially on that of the Borough of Sayreville. Membership is open to all, children and adults alike.

The Society meets on the second Thursday of each month, September through June at 7:30 pm, at the Sayreville Senior Center.

In 1984, Sayreville New School No.1 became the permanent home of the Sayreville Historical Museum.

 

After a year of construction, to include both handicapped accessible elevator and bathrooms, the Sayreville Historical Society would like to announce the grand reopening of the Sayreville Museum.

New exhibits feature a collection of Girl Scout memorabilia dating back to the 1930’s.

Our Museum, is normally open to the public every Sunday from 1:30 PM - 4:00 PM. 

Located at 425 Main Street Sayreville, NJ 08872.

There were 4 correct answers out of just under 100 entries to the Sayreville Historical Society "Guess the Artifact" competition at Sayreville Day.  The correct answer was woman's bustle.  One of the 4 correct answers was then drawn to determine who would receive a copy of the book, IMAGES OF SAYREVILLE.  L. Laubach was the final winner.
