Wenham Museum, a tradition of excellence

Wenham Museum is a family-friendly history museum located in Wenham, Massachusetts. With over 40,000 objects in its historic collections, Wenham Museum offers an accessible destination for visitors to easily experience heritage, learning, and culture in a fun and interactive way. 

Through its five-year Strategic Plan, adopted in May 2013, the museum seeks to align its exhibits and galleries with the needs and interests of its core family audience, while offering heritage-based lectures and programs for adult history enthusiasts. The museum also seeks to rededicate itself to local artifact protection, hands-on and immersive experiences, and responsive audience and community engagement.

Wenham Museum is a 94-year-old donor and visitor-supported institution accredited by the American Alliance of Museums (AAM), a designation earned by only 6% of museums nationwide.
