Museum is located across the street from the state house and is managed by the Historical Society. The displays are sparse but highly interesting and completely focused on NH history. It is a unique way to learn something about the place you're visiting. An hour should do it.

I started at the bookstore, before heading upstairs to see the landscape paintings, and was delighted to see such a selection of books. I bought one written about the German prisoner of war camp that was in Stark, NH, after WWII. There were many children's books too. I enjoyed the art work and climbing up the fire tower. I think it's well worth it to make a visit to the museum.

A sweet little museum specifically enjoyed by my 10 year old. We were upstairs when we found the general store. So much fun. I highly recommend. There is a diner where I enjoyed a great lunch. We spent a solid 2 1/2 hours here. The state house is within walking distance from here.

When I first moved to the state 3 years ago, I visited this museum and loved it! Now, they've consolidated into one building and have very little on display. No more fire tower, no more Concord coach...just portraits and and a fairly interesting photo exhibit. The building is an architectural beauty, but there's little within. The educational staff seemed to be doing a super job of holding the school group's attention, but the museum wasn't even close to what I remembered. I had really looked forward to touring my husband around this once-intriguing museum, but our visit was a disappointment.

When I lived in Concord over 20 years ago, I remembered an actual museum, with a Concord Coach and many other historical artifacts. I loved it. I understand that there may be some moving going on, but this was not explained clearly as we entered the beautiful building near the statehouse. Saw some lovely furniture displayed and a photography exhibit. Not too exciting for kids right now. I hope that this will change.

went to see the women painters exhibit. quite interesting, many throughout the state's history, a couple that were quite good. other exhibits from different periods of NH history, excellent selection books about NH in gift shop.

We were told they are in the process of moving so there was not much to see. Building itself is special with its granite entry and staircase. Right across from capital. Free, although they have donation box at entrance.

Learned quite a bit of the Concord NH & the surrounding area. Truly fascinating & informative especially for someone whom does NOT know anything of the East Coast & said area, although the Staff was NOT as keen to be as helpful as one would have thought, especially to someone NOT from the East Coast area at all.

Found the staff to be extremely helpful in seeking some documents that I was interested in concerning Richard Potter, a celebrated ventriloquist who once resided in Andover, NH. The place is relatively small but still a very nice facility for spending time doing research.

Wonderful display of NH History and even better gift shop with books galore. Fabulous for history lovers!
