“Great place”

The Old Manse

Address: 269 Monument St, Concord, MA 01742, USA

“Particularly one of the Great American homes, this is where Ralph Waldo Emerson's grandfather lived, on a bend in the river a really Divine landscape, where the road turned to cross the river just behind, about a half-mile or less out of the village, where the British troops marched looking for the arms the Colonials had amassed getting ready to revolt against the King. In no other landscape is there more meaning or reason for devotion for the American mind.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson House

Address: 28 Cambridge Turnpike, Concord, MA 01742, USA

“Definitely a must for any fan of Emerson or history. The place sadly seem in need of a little love. I think that is why they do not allow anyone to take pictures...”

Concord Museum

Address: 200 Lexington Rd, Concord, MA 01742, USA

“Fairly fine experience. I had a time exploring the area and seeing the rich history that people had preserved all these years later. Most of the exhibits had an impact on my travel group, with the sophisticated scenarios the museum represented. Although it was not perfect, it was a very great time, and I'd recommend the Concord Museum to any East Coast travellers in the area.”

Wrights Tavern

Address: 53 Cambridge Turnpike, Concord, MA 01742, USA

Louisa May Alcott's Orchard House

Address: 399 Lexington Rd, Concord, MA 01742, USA

“We go every year for their Christmas program. The tour is lead by members of the Alcott family , including Louisa herself. Each room of the house has an Alcott to introduce themselves to you and explain information about their family's life, Orchard House, and speak about Little Women. You step back in time and they treat you as if you were one of their contemporaries stopping by to visit. Advanced tickets can be bought online and are highly recommended, especially for the Christmas program which is held on four days in December. If you buy advanced tickets you are offered a 10% off coupon to use that day in their gift shop. Many of Alcott's books and books about her work are available. Some period toys that the Alcott sisters would have been familiar with, as well as post cards and magnets. A personal favorite must-have treat is the package of heart-shaped shortbread cookies baked locally. We leave with a package for each of our family members. They have become part of our Orchard House tradition.”
