Get CenturyLink Internet in Vernon, NJ

Most Vernon residents love the nearby access to Wawayanda State Park, the Wallkill River National Wildlife Preserve, and Pochuck Mountain and other Appalachian New Jersey peaks. But along with hosting nature enthusiasts, Vernon Township was also the home of Nicolas de Gunzburg—full name Nicolas Louis Alexandre de Gunzburg, or, if you prefer, Baron Nicolas de Gunzburg.

For decades, De Gunzburg's name was one of the most iconic in the fashion and style industry. He was a fashion editor for Harper's Bazaar and Vogue and the editor in chief of Town & Country. And in 1971, he became an honored member of Vanity Fair's International Best Dressed Hall of Fame. De Gunzburg was originally from Europe, but he settled in Vernon and spent most of his adult life there. So what about Vernon inspired him?

Find out for yourself! Start by streaming the Danish film Vampyr on your preferred streaming service; in its restored, high-definition condition, you can see a young de Gunzburg portray the main character. Then, search online to find Vernon activities that can inspire you just like they inspired the baron.
