of the Lee Mansion



The Marblehead Museum's properties are located in Marblehead's historic district. More than 200 privately owned colonial period homes and buildings preserve the unique qualities of this New England fishing port and harbor.

The Museum's collections
preserve and interpret the local and national importance of Marblehead -- and its inhabitants -- through programs and artifacts that span five centuries.

The Museum's exhibits
focus on many aspects of Marblehead's history, drawing from the MMHS collections as well as outside lenders. Past exhibits include: Off the Wall: Wallpapers from the Lee Mansion and Show Me a Sign.
See Archive of Past Exhibits. Exhibits change two to three times a year.
