Norristown Farm Park, State park in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.
The 690-acre park contains multiple colonial buildings, farm structures, and open fields intersected by Stony Creek and seven miles of paved trails.
The land was part of a 7,000-acre tract called Williamstadt, owned by William Penn before Isaac Norris acquired it and later sold portions to Pennsylvania.
The park buildings represent different periods from mid-18th to early 20th century, including mills, farms, and the former Norristown State Hospital structures.
Visitors can access fishing areas with borrowed gear, reserve two picnic pavilions, and participate in summer concerts throughout the recreational season.
The park maintains active agricultural operations while functioning as a public recreation space, managed through a partnership between Pennsylvania and Montgomery County.
