About Kittery Historical and Naval Museum

The Kittery Historical and Naval Museum is run by a local historical society in Kittery, a town on Maine's seacoast. Its displays cover the community's past, from shipbuilding to old hotels and lighthouses. Visitors can browse recent exhibits, including a lobster-fishing display, a special art gallery, and an enhanced digital timeline, then stop in the gift shop for books and Maine souvenirs. Admission is modest, with discounts for several groups and free entry for society members and active military with ID. The museum sits near the Kittery traffic circle, just off I-95.
