Come visit the Museums at Aptucxet, where history comes to life against the scenic backdrop of the Cape Cod Canal. The Museums at Aptucxet are closed for the 2024 season for walk-in tours. We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who visited us in 2024! We will re-open for walk-in tours Memorial Day weekend in 2025. Private tours are still available by booking in advance, offering a personalized experience with deeper insights into our exhibits and historic sites.
