Did you know that the Spalding House was built circa 1760 and is Lowell’s third oldest home?

Visit this colonial museum during an open house to discover the history of the property and its unique connection with Pawtucket Falls and the Merrimack River.  You’ll learn how the relationship between people and the river has shifted over the years; from providing abundant fish to abundant hydro-power.

Explore this relationship, and more, as we open up the Spalding House for self-guided tours and family-friendly activities, usually the second Sunday of every month.

*Due to scheduling conflicts the next two months (Nov & Dec) Spalding House Second Sundays will be held on the first Sunday instead of the usual date.*

As the old saying goes, “At Christmas play and make good cheer!”

Join us for our festive December Open House at the Spalding House on Sunday, December 7th, from $2:00\text{PM}$ to $4:00\text{PM}$. You’re invited to tour the historic house and immerse yourself in the architecture, culture, and history of different time periods. To make good on the “play” part, we’ll feature a large, special display of toys from through the years that you can actually interact with and have some fun! Come experience history and holiday cheer with us.

Additional Open House dates this fall:
