1869: THE HISTORIC TRENTON ARSENAL

This building still stands proudly on the grounds of the New Jersey State Prison. It was a very important part of Trenton during the Civil War, and has been well preserved over the years. It is the residence of the prison warden. As one reads the incredible details of the historic relics kept in the historic old edifice, one wonders how many are still in possession of the state. Many of the flags described are preserved in the N.J. State Library with special lighting and environmental conditions.
