About Historic Jamestowne
Historic Jamestowne is the original site of the first permanent English settlement in America and is open for visitors seven days a week. Visitors can experience archaeology firsthand as Jamestown Rediscovery archaeologists continue to excavate James Fort. Walking tours are available with park rangers, an archaeologist or a costumed living history character. There are exhibits and galleries located in the Visitor Center and the Historic Jamestowne archaeological museum, the Archaearium. One of the first industries of America can be seen at the Glasshouse, where costumed glassblowers demonstrate the craft daily. Lastly, the Island Loop Drive explores the natural environment and can be explored by car, bicycle or foot. Special events are available but may cost an additional fee. Historic Jamestowne is jointly administered by the National Park Service and Jamestown Rediscovery (on behalf of Preservation Virginia).
