Kennebunkport Historical Society

Nott House


In 1853, the richest man in town married the eldest daughter of the town minister.  Tour the Nott House and discover how tastes evolved over the generations. Located in the heart of the village, this gem of Greek revival architecture reflects the lives of the Perkins and Nott families whose fortunes were connected to the thriving shipbuilding era of Kennebunkport, making the town one of the wealthiest in New England. Original furnishings and French wallpaper reflect the luxurious living of the family.  Guided tours are offered Memorial Day weekend through Columbus Day weekend. 
Group tours are encouraged and are available upon request. 
For arrangements, please call 1-207-967-2751 or email us at kporthistory@roadrunner.com

At its North Street campus approximately 1 mile from Dock Square, the Society is anchored by several significant buildings.
