New Hampshire Historical Society

Since 1823, the New Hampshire Historical Society has saved, preserved, and shared New Hampshire’s history. An independent nonprofit, the New Hampshire Historical Society serves thousands of people every year through our library, museum, programs, websites, publications, and exhibitions. The core exhibition, “Discovering New Hampshire,” shares the history of New Hampshire's people, places, and events through objects, photographs, and documents you can't see anywhere else. The Society also has on display an 1855 Abbot-Downing Concord coach, outstanding examples of White Mountain landscape art, portraits of notable Granite Staters, and the original State House eagle.
