Open daily April 20 through October 20, 2024 from 10am-5pm. Heritage Museums & Gardens celebrates American culture and inspires people of all ages to explore, discover and learn together. Located on Cape Cod, Heritage is the largest public garden in southern New England, with more than 100 acres of gardens and nature trails. Heritage also has three gallery buildings that display antique cars, American folk art, a vintage carousel and special featured exhibitions. Join us and take advantage of all that Heritage has to offer, from the Celebration of the American Automobile to Let’s Play! New England Toy Stories.
A Traditional Wampanoag Dwelling: The Wampanoag have lived in what is now southeastern Massachusetts—including the land that is now known as Cape Cod—for more than 12,000 years. They were the first tribe encountered by the Pilgrims when they landed in Patuxet (what is now Plymouth) in 1620. This outdoor exhibition features a reproduction of a wetu, a Wampanoag seasonal house used during the warmer months and usually built near the coast where summer resources are abundant. It is constructed of cedar saplings and covered with either bark or cattail reeds, all readily available materials.
