Overview
Explore 16 galleries, completely renovated in 2021, focused on Concord's literary, abolitionist, cultural and revolutionary history. Learn about the area’s rich and continuing Indigenous presence. Gain a new understanding of the events of April 19, 1775 at the unique multimedia installation.
This hidden gem is housed in a colonial-revival building on the side of a tree-lined country road and, once inside, you'll find art and exhibits from the 17th, 18th, and 19th century.
There's case furniture, tables, seating furniture, clocks, glasses, textiles, ceramics, and metalware. See one of the lanterns hung in the Old North Church on the night of April 18, 1775, as well as other relics of the American Revolution. The Concord Museum also holds the world's most comprehensive collection of Henry D. Thoreau's belongings, including never-seen-before belongings and the desk on which he wrote the influential 'Walden' and 'Civil Disobedience.'
Curators, historians, and educators have recognized the collection for its national significance for more than a century - so don't miss a trip to the museum on your Boston adventure.
