Salem Maritime National Historic Site

Salem Armory

Address: 2 New Liberty Street, Salem, MA 01970

Salem Maritime, America's first National Historic Site (1938), preserves the waterfront where Salem's merchant fleet made the young United States a trading power: the 1819 Custom House where Nathaniel Hawthorne worked, the wharves that sent ships to India and China, and the replica tall ship Friendship.

Board the Friendship, ring her bell, and walk the historic wharves; young kids can earn a Junior Ranger badge. For a challenge, tour the historic homes and study the Triangle Trade that built and burdened Salem.
