Virtual Exhibits

We’re proud to offer a new Virtual Exhibit based on our 2022 exhibit “The Avenue: A History of Washington Street.”

While there is no substitute for visiting the Museum and experiencing our exhibits in person, our virtual exhibits allow people who aren’t able to make it to the Museum to still benefit from our exhibits, and they also serve as big snapshots of our changing exhibits.

You can take a virtual tour of the museum on Google Maps in a 360-degree view  of our “Mapping the Territory” exhibit (2013). Our Google Map entry features high-quality photography and interactive navigation: Hoboken Historical Museum on Google Maps.

In addition, we have Gigapans – wide-angle, high-resolution photographs – of many of our exhibits, past and present. Click on the links below to view them.
