INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW

The Moosehead Historical Society, whose campus is located at the foot of Moosehead Lake in Greenville, Maine, is a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation and communication of the fascinating and colorful history of the Moosehead Lake region. We cordially invite you to visit our museum, and join us for our summer series of “Living History” presentations, both of which offer excellent opportunities to experience and enjoy our rich local and regional heritage. We also invite you to become a member of the Society, and thereby assist us in preserving “days gone by” to be shared in days to come.

When you visit the Moosehead Lake region, please plan to tour our campus. We offer docent-guided tours of the Eveleth-Crafts-Sheridan House, an 1899 Victorian mansion, and our Lumberman’s Museum from early June through September each Wednesday through Friday from 1:00 to 4:00 PM.

The Carriage House archives are available during the winter months for reading and research. Please contact us at 207-695-2909 to confirm office hours.

We are located 1.5 miles west of downtown Greenville at 444 Pritham Avenue, across from Moosehead Cedar Log Homes
