Lexington Historical Society

The mission of Lexington Historical Society is to be a premier interpreter of the events of April 1775, and the faithful steward of all of the town's history through time.

Lexington Historical Society is an independent non-profit passionate about preserving Lexington's history and sharing it with the public. We give tours of our fascinating historic sites, where the events of the early days of the American Revolution unfolded. Visitors walk in the steps of John Hancock, Samuel Adams, Paul Revere, and George Washington! The Society provides programming year-round for all ages:

• Lectures and book groups for adults
• Educational programs for school groups
• A summer camp
• Parties, picnics, and family fun
• Artistic and cultural exhibits and events

We pride ourselves on making the most of Lexington’s growing diversity through collaborative community programs. The Society has extensive collections from throughout three hundred years of Lexington history, which we display in engaging exhibits in many venues throughout our community.
