Revision as of 11:39, 24 February 2010

The Salem Maritime National Historic Site is in the Derby Wharf area of Salem and is run by the United States National Park Service. Designated by the Secretary of the Interior on March 17, 1938, the Salem Maritime National Historic Site became the first national historic site in the National Park System. It consists of 9 acres of land, 12 historic buildings, and a visitor center along the Salem waterfront.

  • Some of the historic sites it maintains are:

Derby and Central Wharves, the Derby House, the Custom House, Hawkes House, Narbonne House, the West India Dry Goods Store, the Friendship, a recreated three-masted ship, and St. Joseph Society Hall (the Polish Club). Many of the features of the sites reflect Salem's association with maritime history.
