Historic Attractions

Long before the Boston Tea Party, Portsmouth citizens provided the gunpowder and stores that fueled the American Revolution and stoked the fires of liberty. If it hadn't been for the first Portsmouth area settler, there never would have been a first Thanksgiving for the Pilgrims. And if it hadn't been for the prowess of Portsmouth shipbuilders, John Paul Jones may never have had a chance to utter the famous words, "I have not yet begun to fight." We invite you to discover the untold stories of our American heritage through the many historic homes and museums in our area. Leave your history books at home and learn the real story.
