Located on a 48-square-mile island, twenty-eight miles off the coast of Cape Cod, is the home of the nation's largest concentration of eighteenth-century buildings, miles of pristine beaches, and one of the largest cranberry bogs in the region. Established in 1894, The Nantucket Historical Association strives to preserve, collect, and educate. By touring the properties, visitors see how Nantucket evolved from a small farming community to be the capital of the American whaling industry to a popular resort community.
