Who We Are

Portsmouth Historical Society, founded in 1917, is a nonprofit devoted to championing the history, arts, and culture of the Portsmouth region through acquisitions, preservation, museum exhibitions, programs, and publications. It operates two facilities: the Discover Portsmouth Welcome Center and the 1758 John Paul Jones Historic House Museum and Gardens, a national historic landmark.

What We Do

The Portsmouth Historical Society brings our city's history and present to life through our Welcome Center, our galleries and exhibition shows, and our stewardship of the historic John Paul Jones House. We run workshops, lecture series, walking tours, special events, and more.
