The Princeton Battlefield State Park honors the troops that fell during the 1777 Battle of Princeton during the American Revolutionary War. Part of the battlefield is now a state park which features peaceful winter fields and verdant woods of the Princeton Battlefield, commemorating the battle which ended when the British soldiers in Nassau Hall surrendered. Features in the park include the famous Clarke House, which was built by Thomas Clarke in 1772 and served as a sanctuary for General Mercer. Today, the house is open as a museum and is filled with period furniture and Revolutionary War exhibits.
