Yarmouth Historical Society

The Yarmouth History Center was built in 2013 on the site of the old Yarmouth Water District Building. The stone wall inside the Center is original to the Water District Building.

The Yarmouth Historical Society has one of the finest local history collections in Maine. The Society exhibits this collection at the Yarmouth History Center at 118 East Elm Street, Yarmouth, Maine. At the Center, visitors can view some of the collection’s thousands of objects, archives, and photographs that document our heritage from the early history to yesterday.

The Yarmouth Historical Society is a membership-based 501(c)-3 non-profit organization. Our mission is to collect, preserve, and educate the public about the history of the town of Yarmouth and the area of ancient North Yarmouth. The Yarmouth History Center is open 10-5 Tuesday through Saturday.
