Penobscot Marine Museum
Maine's history of boat- and shipbuilding goes back more than 200 years. In vessels ranging from the bark canoe to the six-masted schooner, the Maine-built boat has been a touchstone of good workmanship and practical yet appealing design. Vessel types whose places or origin are inseparable from their names – like the Jonesport lobster boat, the Lincolnville wherry, the Matinicus double-ender and the Friendship sloop – attest to Maine's boatbuilding renown.

The Abbe Museum was founded in 1926 and first opened to the public in 1928. The museum is named for its founder, Dr. Robert Abbe (1851-1928), an eminent New York physician known for his pioneering use of radiation therapy. A beloved summer resident of Bar Harbor, during the 1920s Dr. Abbe assembled a collection of early Native American artifacts found in the Frenchman Bay area.

boothbayhistorical.jpgThe Boothbay Region Historical Society
The Boothbay Region Historical Society is located at the 1874 Elizabeth F. Reed house and its grounds, Fullerton Park. Many of the furnishings in the museum in the building were Reed family heirlooms. The society has traditionally represented the three towns in the region: Boothbay, Boothbay Harbor, and Southport, though Southport is now ably represented by its own society. The museum displays local historical mementos and houses documentary collections.
