Paterson Museum, Industrial history museum in Paterson, United States.
The Paterson Museum occupies the Thomas Rogers Locomotive Erecting Shop building, displaying exhibits about local industrial development, machinery, and textile manufacturing.
The museum, established in 1925, began in the Danforth Public Library before moving to Mayor Barnert's carriage house and finally to its current location in 1982.
The collections showcase the heritage of Paterson through artifacts from Native American objects to machinery that transformed the city into a textile manufacturing center.
Located at 2 Market Street, the museum opens Tuesday through Friday from 10 AM to 4 PM, weekends from 12:30 PM to 4:30 PM, with a suggested donation of 2 dollars.
The museum houses the first submarine constructed by John Holland alongside collections of Colt firearms and machinery from the locomotive manufacturing period.
