About Phippsburg Historical Museum

The Phippsburg Historical Society runs a museum and research collection focused on the town's past. Its building is now climate-controlled, which lets it host researchers year-round, though visits are arranged by appointment. Volunteers have been sorting a large donation of local research papers, adding many documents about area families to the collection.
