Welcome to the cyber-home of the Nahant Historical Society!
Our mission is: “To acquire, preserve and interpret artifacts of Nahant,
Massachusetts, illustrating its history, prehistory and that of people associated with
it, for the enjoyment, education and enrichment of the public.”
Come visit and learn about Nahant's rich historic heritage in our quarters here
at the recently renovated Valley Road School and renamed the Nahant Community
Center. We welcome researchers and urge you to visit our Hodges Reference Room
and its library and archives facilities. We invite you to visit our premier
major exhibition, entitled Nahant on the Rocks.
This retrospective illustrates
in a lively format the legendary and seldom told story of Nahant and its
people. Nahant on the Rocks opened in 2003 to rave reviews.
In 2004 this exhibition won one of the most prestigious museum awards:
the Certificate of Commendation from the
American Association of State and Local History.
History is fun! Come join us.
