About The Public Health Museum in Massachusetts

This museum in Tewksbury preserves artifacts and records tied to public health history in the United States. It is operated as a nonprofit separate from Tewksbury Hospital and occupies the Richard Morris building, also called the Old Administration Building, on the hospital grounds. Beyond displays, it aims to serve local residents by teaching about current health concerns and supporting public health efforts. The museum opened in 1994, during the centennial year of that historic building.
