The oldest house in the city, the William Trent House Museum is an imposing brick home that was constructed in 1719 for William Trent, the founder of Trenton. The inside of the house has been converted into a museum full of exhibits that cover various aspects of 18th-century gardening methods and plants that were popular during this time, and visitors are also welcome to explore the beautiful gardens and have a picnic on the grounds. Food and live music events are held occasionally throughout the year.
