Sites to Celebrate: Local History Revisited at RJHS

Saturday, July 12–Sunday, October 26, 2025

A new Roe Jan Historical Society exhibit highlights ten historic sites within the Roe Jan area, each with a unique story. From well-known landmarks to hidden gems, and some that have recently emerged from the shadows of history, this exhibition invites you to explore the rich tapestry of our local heritage. Summer weekend programs will be pre-scheduled visits to actual sites featured in the exhibition.

The sites we will visit range from established historic districts to recently restored treasures and those currently undergoing careful restoration. This exhibition represents the combined efforts of the RJHS, the Copake Historic Preservation Committee, the Copake Grange, the Copake Ironworks, and many dedicated individuals, organizations, and public institutions committed to preserving our shared history.
