The Passaic County Board of County Commissioners celebrated a strong reopening weekend at Lambert Castle, welcoming more than 3,000 visitors to the newly restored landmark.
Families, residents and regional visitors explored the castle’s restored interiors and scenic views of Paterson, lining up early to be among the first inside.
“We are absolutely thrilled by the response from our community,” said County Commissioner John W. Bartlett. “To welcome more than 3,000 visitors in a single weekend speaks volumes about how much Lambert Castle means to the people of Passaic County and beyond.”
Due to the high turnout, Passaic County will implement a timed ticketing system, allowing visitors to reserve designated time slots in advance. The new system aims to reduce wait times, manage capacity and ensure an enjoyable experience for all guests.
The castle’s reopening marks a major milestone for the county, highlighting its efforts to preserve historic landmarks while making them accessible to the public.
