Moorestown Historical Society presents Shipwrecks Off the Jersey Coast

The event will take place this Wednesday, Nov. 16 at 7 p.m.

Divers and historians have known for years what lies beneath the dark waters off New Jersey’s Atlantic Coast. Now you can learn the secrets buried at sea. Join us this Wednesday, Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. when Dan Lieb, president of the New Jersey Historical Divers Association, presents Shipwrecks Off the Jersey Coast.

Lieb has dived deep into these cold, rough waters and has discovered amazing shipwrecks that reveal New Jersey’s significant history. From wrecked luxury liners to sunken German U-Boats, Lieb — who has appeared on History Channel’s Deep Sea Detectives — will describe what lies buried in New Jersey’s ocean floor and will share the tales of courage, terror and survival that accompany the wrecked vessels.

The event will be held at the Moorestown Library and is free and open to the public thanks to a generous grant from the Elizabeth Tuttle Fund and a cooperative effort between the Historical Society of Moorestown and the Moorestown Library.
