Pilgrim Hall Museum

At Pilgrim Hall Museum, the oldest continuously operating museum in the country, visitors are immersed in the 400-year-old story of the Mayflower Pilgrims and the Native Wampanoag people, presented in the world’s finest collection of early Plymouth possessions. Our historic Museum building includes three galleries of rare artifacts and artworks, multimedia presentations, and exhibitions that illuminate the experiences of the English families who settled Plymouth in 1620 and the Indigenous peoples who lived here before, during, and after their arrival. Your donation supports the educational mission of this 200-year-strong institution and helps preserve the history of America’s beginnings.

Make your online donation here. It will be used where most needed:

A major tranformative series of much-needed renovations are underway in 2024 to protect the historic Main Gallery and its precious contents. We need a little help from our friends to Raise the Roof and Light the Way for Pilgrim Hall's future! Please become part of our future - your tax-deductible gift in any amount will help Pilgrim Hall Museum and its irreplaceable collection enter its third century sturdy, stable, beautifully lighted and dry! Please also consider donating to our Light the Way Conservation Fund via the "Donate for Conservation" button below. This will directly benefit the initial phase of the roof project, and help us meet a significant matching grant. Thank you!

We are the stewards of rare and evocative artifacts, documents, and artworks that tell the story of Plymouth Colony. Your gift in any amount to Pilgrim Hall Museum’s Conservation Fund directly supports the conservation of our historical collections. Make your online donation to the Conservation Fund here:
