Please arrive at 10:45am at the Hallet Barn & Visitor's Center.Falmouth’s seafaring past is well known, but the arrival of the railroad in 1871 revealed another side of our town’s history. With the coming of the trains, Falmouth’s connection to the wider world shifted from the sea to the rails. Daily arrivals brought new tourism and industry, and a gritty commercial district quickly developed around Depot Avenue.Join us as we delve into Falmouth’s industrial past, exploring local enterprises such as Falmouth Coal, the Lawrence Grain Mill, and the Swift meat market. We’ll also uncover remnants of the hidden road to Tanglewood and discuss the dramatic Beebe Woods fire of 1947.Along the way, you’ll see wonderful examples of late-19th- and early-20th-century homes built by enterprising Cape Codders, as well as the studio of artist—and former Falmouth Enterprise art critic—William Littlefield.Please register in advance, space is limited.

One of the most popular sites in Falmouth for visitors, it contains the 1790 Dr. Francis Wicks House—a magnificent Federalist-period residence with guided tours demonstrating what life was like for an affluent physician in the late 18th and early 19th centuries; the recently-restored 1730 Conant House—used for exhibits, research and genealogy studies; the Hallett Barn Visitors’ Center—rebuilt in 2002 on the site of an original barn and used a welcoming point for those coming to Falmouth as well as the “Whaling Wives Gift Shop”; the Colonial Gardens—showing off plantings, such as a boxwood tree, that go back to the days prior to the American Revolution; Memorial Park—a tranquil place of refuge that is open to all visitors looking for relaxation; and the recently-opened (2012) Cultural Center—a superb, 3600 square foot structure used for public and private programs and events, public restrooms, kitchen facilities, and as a repository for archival collections to preserve Falmouth’s past. It also has a series of rotating historical exhibits throughout the campus. "
