Bayside Historical Society

The Bayside Historical Society collects objects, artifacts, and records located to the local history of Fort Totten and Bayside in NYC. It was founded in 1964 and is housed in the castle that sits in Fort Totten Park. The Gothic Revival-style castle was built during the 1880s and was used by the United States Army. The castle is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Here are some of the "must see" items at Bayside Historical Society. From the Archives: Bayside Yacht Club Native Bayside The Castle
