Lambert Castle

The  Passaic County Historical Society was founded in 1926  to "cultivate interest among individuals in the community at large in the history of Passaic County." In an effort to achieve this objective the PCHS, a private non-profit organization,  maintains a library and museum housed in a unique castle in Garret Mountain Reservation, a county park, overlooking Paterson, NJ.
