Maine Historical Society

Since 1822, Maine Historical Society has been preserving and sharing Maine’s story throughout the state and beyond. Located in the heart of Portland’s downtown cultural district, our campus is comprised of a Museum, Store, Brown Research Library, the Wadsworth-Longfellow House and Garden, and Maine Memory Network, our award-winning, online digital history platform. Some videos on our YouTube channel feature guest lecturers. The content and opinions expressed in these presentations are solely those of the speaker and not necessarily of the Maine Historical Society.
