See And Experience All That Plymouth County Has To Offer
Plymouth County offers cranberry farms, beautiful nature walks and more. Within the county is Plymouth, MA, the home of Plymouth Rock, a universal symbol of America. It is where the Mayflower came ashore 400 years ago, bringing with it English pilgrims who helped found the nation. The town and county of Plymouth boasts some of the best whale watching, dining, shopping, and cultural activities in a quaint New England setting, much of it nestled along the seashore. It is a history lover’s paradise, a family friendly atmosphere, and easy walking as you take in breathtaking sunrises.
![Reposted from @plimothpatuxet Celebrate 75 years of living history! On this day 75 years ago Plimoth Patuxet Museums was officially incorporated.
Plimoth Patuxet Museums’ story begins with visionary founder, Henry (Harry) Hornblower II [pictured]. From an early age, Hornblower was fascinated by the story of the Pilgrims and the Indigenous Peoples of the Northeast and, inspired by the artifacts found on several archaeological digs, wanted to bring that history to life for others too.
Plimoth Patuxet's programs and exhibits are the expression of an educational organization that is dedicated to telling the stories of all the people who lived in Colonial Plymouth, or Patuxet (as it is called by Indigenous People) and committed to recovering and interpreting these voices so that visitors can experience more fully the complex and richly nuanced portrait of life in the 1600s.](https://seeplymouth.com/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed-pro/img/placeholder.png)
