Experience York—Maine’s colonial capital, settled by Europeans in the early 1630s, and a crucial regional center for government and trade.
Experience southern Maine’s largest museum of historic properties, located at the heart of York Village and along the York River. Cool off in a colonial jail, stroll through a historic house, or enjoy one of many programs throughout the year—lectures, community events, walking tours, and more! The Remick Gallery showcases an exceptional collection of early Maine decorative arts and artifacts, including the celebrated crewelwork bed hangings embroidered by Mary Bulman of York. Open for weekly tours, the Perkins House Museum, a 1730s ship captain’s house turned summer cottage, bears witness to York’s transformation from a sleepy port into a popular vacation destination in the 19th century. And no visit would be complete without encountering the stories of crime and punishment at the National Historic Landmark Old Gaol Museum, the country’s earliest intact prison.
