Visitors to Lexington History Museums experience three fascinating historic sites, Buckman Tavern, Munroe Tavern, and the Hancock-Clarke House, where significant events of the Revolutionary War unfolded, as well as the Lexington Depot, a renovated 19th century train station that holds all of Lexington’s history through time. Visitors can walk in the steps of John Hancock, Samuel Adams, Paul Revere, and George Washington to enhance their understanding of the American origin story.
We have extensive collections from throughout three hundred years of Lexington history, including documents, artwork, furniture, and textiles, which are available to researchers. These collections and their stories are displayed in engaging exhibits in rotation at our museums as well as at many venues throughout our community. We are continually collecting to ensure that the stories of the town’s growing and diverse population are preserved for centuries to come.
Visitors can also engage with history through special programs throughout the year, including lectures, music and theatrical performances, walking tours, socials at our historic taverns, a book club, and a children’s summer camp. Our programming allows visitors to interact with Lexington’s continued history and its connections to other local sites and historic events.
