  • History and Uses of Witch Hazel: The Plant that Shaped Essex

    House of the Triple Moon 1 North Main Street, Unit 4, Essex, CT, United States

    Join EHS and House of the Triple Moon for a special America 250 program exploring witch hazel, a native plant that helped shape Essex. Indigenous to Connecticut, witch hazel was long used by Native communities, who developed the practice of steeping its twigs and leaves to create a mild astringent. Colonial settlers in Potapaug (now Essex) quickly adopted this remedy, and it became a household staple. Readily available and often found growing close to home, witch hazel was blended into oils, poultices, and salves and served as a trusted treatment for many everyday ailments.   Although widely used, witch hazel was difficult to sell commercially due to its short shelf life—until the 1860s, when a doctor in Essex discovered that adding alcohol preserved the witch hazel extract. By 1875 innovations in the production of witch hazel distilling, made Essex the capital of the industry. For the next 100 years, E.E. Dickinson & Co  transformed a local product into an international commodity—firmly securing Essex’s place in this remarkable story. Join us as we explore the history, uses, and lasting legacy of this remarkable local herb and work hands-on with a plant that continues to connect us to Essex’s past.

  • EHS Collections at the Library: Game Night

    Recurring
    Essex Historical Society 22 Prospect Street, Essex, CT, United States

    Please stop by and see EHS's new exhibit at Essex Library. "Game Night!" has been curated by EHS Director, Melissa Josefiak, and the Collections team. Items and photos in the exhibit are all part of EHS collections, and will be on display through March. As part of EHS’s continuing efforts to share our collections objects with the community, we are presenting quarterly exhibits in cases at the Essex Library (33 West Ave.). These objects will be available to view during the Library’s regular hours operation. Essex Historical Society (EHS) stewards over 7,000 objects spanning 10,000 years of history, representing the villages of Centerbrook, Essex and Ivoryton.  While the majority of EHS’s collections arrive through private donations, some objects arrive as discoveries, unearthed from surprising places.  In a few cases, their journey is more interesting than the stories they tell. The Essex Library collections cases will rotate out again in April, so please visit the cases to see the current showcased items.

  • Tapping into the Past: Tavern Life in Early Connecticut

    The Griswold Inn 36 Main Street, Essex, United States

    During America’s 250th year, Essex Historical Society is excited to bring the community a number of special programs to mark this historic occasion. We are especially thrilled to partner with the Griswold Inn for a featured event, as 2026 also marks the Gris’s 250th year in business — a remarkable milestone for one of the nation’s oldest continuously operating inns. Taverns in early Connecticut were far more than just places to drink. For travelers and locals alike, they served as hubs of entertainment, news, gossip, good food, and overnight lodging. Taverns were an essential part of every Connecticut town and played a vital role in social and civic life. Join the Essex Historical Society (EHS) and the Griswold Inn (the Gris) for this special program from the Connecticut Museum of History and Culture exploring the rich history of tavern life in early Connecticut. Begin your evening by grabbing a pint or a hot buttered rum in the Gris Tap Room before settling into the Covered Bridge Dining Room for this engaging presentation. We recommend arriving by 4:30 PM to allow time for parking and a visit to the bar before the program begins. Registration required NOTE: If you would like to stay for dinner […]
