Edison National Historic Site

The Edison National Historic Site is located in West Orange, New Jersey and consists in part of the laboratory in which Thomas Edison worked while leading America's technological and business revolution. The remainder of the Edison National Historic Site is Glenmont, a Queen Ann-style mansion that he purchased for his second wife, located only one mile from the invention factory. Among the numerous inventions housed in Edison's famed invention factory are early light bulbs, an electric car, and a kinetoscope. Some of Edison's laboratory notebooks, patent applications, and other important documents are preserved at the site. Below are links that provide information about the Edison National Historic Site.
