Museum


New Hampshire Through Many Eyes

A dad and son look at Revolutionary War objects in the New Hampshire Through Many Eyes exhibition.


Discover New Hampshire in the exhibition New Hampshire History Through Many Eyes. Some of the museum's most popular and fascinating objects are featured in this overview exhibition of New Hampshire's past.

You'll see an original Concord stagecoach, sit in a re-created wigwam, eavesdrop on a family conversation in an eighteenth-century parlor, and climb a fire tower - inside the museum! The exhibition also features a free audio tour, New Hampshire Through Many Voices, produced by the New Hampshire Historical Society in partnership with New Hampshire Public Radio.
