Complete information about visiting Salem Maritime National Historical Park is now on National Park Planner!
Salem Maritime National Historical Park is located in Salem, Massachusetts. It was established in 1938 to preserve three wharves and a collection of buildings associated with the city’s maritime industry.
Begin your visit to the park at the Salem Armory Visitor Center. Here you can get a park brochure and speak with a Ranger about what there is to see and do. There are eight historical buildings within the park, and visitors are welcome to tour the interiors of the Custom House, the Public Stores, the Scale House, the Derby House, and the Narbonne House. The rest of the buildings are closed to the public and can only be viewed from the outside.
