The green lawns of the Whitfield House property cover the complicated remains of this State Archaeological Preserve.

Admission to the tour also includes self-guided tours of the 1639 Whitfield House, the Visitor Center hands-on galleries, and the Education Building’s displays.

Limited to the first 40 people (ages 13+) who arrive — no advance reservations. Free parking.
