Montclair Attractions

Montclair was part of the homeland of the Lenape Indians. The first settlers arrived in 1666 and the settlement began. Between 1880 and 1930, Montclair's population leaped from 5,147 to 42,017. It is currently a prosperous business center.
Israel Crane House
This Federal style house was built in 1796 by Israel Crane, a direct descendent of the founding family of Montclair. The restored Israel Crane House features period furnishings, decorative arts, gardens, a 19th century schoolroom on the third floor, and an Early American Kitchen, where cooking demonstrations are given such as open hearth cooking and bee hive oven baking.

The ten rooms of Crane House include a painted bedroom furniture set owned by Paul Revere IV, dated 1816; ceramics, glassware, and silverware; paintings and an 1827 harp.
