The tour guides knew their stuff and had excellent skills. The collection of materials on the 1913 Patterson Strike was good.

What a wonderful institution to learn about the silk workers and their strikes. We took a group of 20 students and they were entertained by the stories and the bocce court next to the house. This is definitely worth a stop if you're interested in history and to see authentic memorabilia. The tour guides were excellent and very well-informed. We definitely could have stayed another hour and for only $5 it is a great place.

Great little museum of the path. Great information and story about the labor movement. It’s an amazing place to check out in the area. Totally worth every minute. The tour guide was amazing women that made and gave the place so much life and importance.

A wonderful and very educational tour, led by a very knowledgeable guide Evelyn Hershey. The exhibits show how dramatically times have changed in the last one hundred years, mostly for the good (e.g.- modern conveniences) and some negatively (less community spirit and activism). Back in the day, people seemed to be willing to take risks (go on strike, face arrest), more 'all for one, and one for all' when compared to today. The Labor Museum is well worth a visit, and your support.

Had an awesome time here, learning about the heroic workers of the past and their organizing struggles. The person who gave us a tour was really nice and knowledgeable. I wish there were more places like this in this country.

A well-kept secret--somewhat secluded in a residential neighborhood of otherwise unremarkable Haledon, N. J.--Botto House is a great experience for any student of American history or historic preservation. The house evokes the turn of the twentieth century beautifully. Although not as cramped as the Lower East Side Tenement Museum, it's a great alternative for understanding immigrant history. The guide was terrific--unobtrusive and at the same time informative.

This museum doesn't just represent a crucial era in labor history, but also reflects a labor of love exhibited by the staff who make this a must visit destination for locals and travelers alike. Anyone who appreciates the role that working people have played in building this country owe a visit to this well-preserved piece of history that reminds us how much solidarity still matters to this day.

Evelyn was so kind to show us around. Really old building with incredible history. Be sure to check out the balcony and the cellar!

An excellent historical site, definitely worth a visit. In 1913, approx 25000 people fought for safe working conditions, an end to child labor and a fair day's pay. This is an important place in American Labor history and the items in the museum show it.

A must-see to understand the history of the American Labor Movement. A hidden jem in North Jersey

Angelica Santomauro great time

This is a fascinating piece of American history, little known by most people other than historians. Great place to take students!
