Visitor Guide
Plimoth Patuxet is about more than the stories we share. We are about the history we make together.
In New England's oldest town, the American Experiment took root in the 17th century. The pre-industrial societies who met along these shores of change have much to teach about living with each other in conflict and collaboration.
At Plimoth Patuxet you will discover the legacies of our ancestors, Indigenous and immigrant alike. Understanding the events that took place here in the 17th century helps us to better understand our world today and our place within it.
Spending time here is more than a museum visit.
We have a history full of exceptional experiences and thought-stirring conversations.
We're about the memories you make here and the experiences you share as generations of families, friends, fellow citizens, and welcomed visitors who take a trip to the past and learn something new.
Inspiring journeys begin here and last for generations. Through decades of research on the Wampanoag Homeland and Plymouth Colony, we illuminate the past and share what we discover with the world.
