Fun facts about Princeton

How Princeton University Came to Be: No one is really sure where the name Princeton came from, but we do know that travelers started using that name as they moved along the Kings Highway inland. The area was named Prince’s town for King William III, Prince William of Orange of the House of Nassau. Around 1724, the name Princeton started to circulate and it stuck. The original College of New Jersey was located in Newark. In 1756, they relocated from Newark to Princeton with the creation of Nassau Hall. The entire college was housed there for about 150 years under the name of Princeton College, Old North, or Nassau Hall. The name officially changed to Princeton University in 1896 in honor of the town in which it resides.
