General Information
The American Heritage Museum is open weekly from Wednesday through Sunday from 10:00am to 5:00pm each day. The AHM is fully ADA accessible and covers over 67,000 square feet in our well ventilated, climate controlled facility. Visitors are encouraged to plan at least two hours for their visit.
The annex buildings such as the Aircraft Hangar or Car Collection are open ONLY on Special Event Weekends (see schedule here) and are not part of general admission.
We are sorry, the American Heritage Museum does not have a café or dining available at this time. Great dining experiences in downtown Hudson, MA are only 2 miles away.

IMPORTANT NOTE
Depending on the direction you are coming from, your GPS may direct you to use Barton Road, Pine Point Road, or Hunter Avenue to access the museum, but this is incorrect. There is no access from Barton Road as the driveway listed does not exist. If you are coming from points Northeast, simply navigate to the town of Hudson first, then navigate to our direct address.
PARKING
Parking is FREE at the museum and there are handicapped parking spaces available. Please note that due to popularity in the summer months, our overflow parking extends to a grass parking area, so please be prepared in case of poor weather.
