D&H Canal Historical Society at the Persen House

The D&H Canal Historical Society was established in 1966 to preserve, protect and perpetuate the unique history of the Delaware & Hudson Canal, particularly in Ulster County.  As part of fulfilling its mission, the Society operates a museum and maintains the Five Locks Walk, a National Historic Landmark.  Join the society’s historian, Bill Merchant, for meet & greet and informal discussion on all things D&H Canal related!
