Mapping Marblehead, Massachusetts, United States
5.0 (3 reviews) Tuesday: Spent Ranking #10 in Marblehead History Museums
Terrific Exhibit in Marblehead's Old Town House - the history of the Town in the 1800's.
The exhibit includes interpretive panels, artifacts, and interactive maps illustrating Marblehead’s growth and expansion. From the War of 1812, through Grand Banks fishing, Abolitionism and the Underground Railroad, the Civil War, shoemaking, trains, yachting, and tourism, Marblehead struggled to survive and prosper. It’s an inspiring story. Not to be missed is the chance to step into a life-size representation of a nineteenth century view of Marblehead Harbor from Crocker Park, for a delightful photo opportunity.

An interesting addition to Marblehead's historic offerings. I learned a lot about the town, New England and the country. Clever design, I love the shades that are designed to be maps themselves especially at night when they can be seen glowing from the street.

Marblehead in the 1800’s
Great show for people who live in town and those visiting. It’s free and open Thursday- Sunday till October. The exhibit is in the historic old town house built in 1727.
