National Heritage Museum
The National Heritage Museum is an American history museum founded and supported by 32° Scottish Rite Freemasons in the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction of the United States of America.
A visit to the National Heritage Museum is truly an experience in the American spirit. Our exhibitions tell thrilling stories of patriotism, adventure, invention, community and dissent-all aspects of how we as a people have worked, and played, struggled and achieved. And because our exhibitions change regularly, you always experience something new.
With free admission and parking seven days a week, you can make our Museum your first stop on a tour of the historic Lexington and Concord area. From July through October, you can board an hour and a half bus tour of the historic Battle Road right at our doorstep.
Out of more than 100 museums in New England that are accredited by the American Association of Museums, the National Heritage Museum is one of a few that has free admission year-round.
