Greetings from Adams National Historical Park

My friends were visiting from California and we met at Adams Park. They loved the house, grounds and knowledgeable guides. The supervisor of the park went out of her way to insure we received our admission tickets. It was a terrific experience.

Sincerely,

Adams National Historical Park

Adams National Historical Park is the only place in the country where the stories of two presidents, John Adams and John Quincy Adams, can be told from birth to death. The three properties with flower gardens and orchards transport the visitor back in time to when the Adams family lived on the premises.

State(s): Massachusetts

Established: 1946

“It embodies the early history of our country and intelligent and honest people who shaped it. A far cry from today.”
