 The Nantucket Historical Association is dedicated to preserving Nantucket's heritage. With its museums, historic sites, and period houses, the association reveals the way that islanders lived and worked for over 300 years. By touring the properties, visitors see how Nantucket evolved from a small farming community to be the capital of the American whaling industry to a popular resort community. Today, Nantucket is home to the nation's largest concentration of 18th century buildings, miles of pristine beaches, and one of the largest cranberry bogs in the region. The Nantucket Historical Association has been a part of the community since 1894 and strives to preserve, collect, and educate into the island's future.
Tickets are $175 per person.
