About the Lowell National Historical Park
Lowell National Historical Park, located at 246 Market Street in Lowell, Massachusetts, is a museum, park, and tourist attraction that tells the story of the city's water-powered textile mills that revolutionized the industrial era. Immigrant families and early female factory workers played a crucial role in this transformation, and their impact is still felt today in our global economy.
As poet Lucy Larcom once said, "All was expectancy. Changes were coming…nobody could guess what." Lowell is a living testament to this sentiment, showcasing the dynamic human story of the industrial revolution. Visitors can explore the park to learn about the history and legacy of Lowell's mills.
The Tsongas Industrial History Center offers hands-on field trips for students, providing a unique educational experience for the next generation. Additionally, the park celebrates women's history during the month of March, highlighting the important contributions of women throughout Lowell's history.
Come visit Lowell National Historical Park to discover the rich heritage of this industrial city and learn about the lasting impact of its industrial past.

Reviews of Lowell National Historical Park
"Very good food and oysters. The restaurant is upscale with a beautiful interior and a good menu. I tried the French Onion soup and it was delicious. My friend tried a house raspberry brew, that was sadly al gone exceot for half a cup. But it was delicious. We would defintely return for drinks, apps and oysters."
"Went on the boat tour today. Nadia our wonderful tour guide made it fun, and most informative! Being out on the Pawtucket Canal, seeing the stone walls and mill buildings that line its banks, learning how the water powered the mills and the history and current state of the canals was most interesting. And all of this in an urban setting! Highly recommended!"
"Parking at the visitors center seemed challenging when I arrived, I drove around and finally found some metered street parking. Apparently, they validate parking in a ramp behind the visitors center. There was also a large surface lot barricaded off for some reason. They offer a free walking tour of Suffolk Mill, a $12 canal tour, a free boarding house museum and $6 self guided tour of Books Mill. Trolleys run to the major sights. I struggled to get an overview of what "Lowell" was and the major sights. It would be nice if they developed a "What to see" in 2-3 hours, a half day and full day, recommendations like many of the National Parks have."
"We visited a large building that had five floors and was full of little studios with all kinds of arts and crafts. Everything from glass and metal working, kitch, stone sculpture and found object bashing. Costuming, wood working, clothiers and painters. We ran out of time to see it all but we then got to hang out at the basement brewery which was great!"
"Stopped here without really knowing what to expect. The ranger was very helpful and we were quite surprised how long we stayed in the end. If you’re into old factories it’s quite cool. Rather empty in mid-October, apparently in summer there are boat and tram tours, so that’s probably a better time to visit."
