Louisa May Alcott House

Overview

Imagine stepping back in time and walking through the same halls Louisa May Alcott once did. Her home, known as Orchard House, in Concord, is more than just walls with a roof – it's a peek into her life. This is where Alcott wrote her famous novel, Little Women in 1868, which is loosely based on the story of her own family life with her sisters.

A visit here is like walking into the world of the March family, and trust us, it's an adventure you wouldn't want to miss.

Step across the threshold and enjoy the warm, inviting ambiance of this iconic house, which is decorated with Alcott family artifacts. As you're guided through the home, you'll not only easily picture Jo, Meg, Amy and Beth in scenes from the book, but you will also stand where the Alcott sisters performed their own plays, marvel at artwork adorning the walls and doors, and learn about the fascinating real-life family upon which the characters were based.
