Strawbery Banke, Open-air museum in Portsmouth, United States

The Strawbery Banke Museum features 40 historic structures across 10 acres, displaying different architectural styles from the 17th through 19th centuries.

The waterfront neighborhood evolved from a British settlement in 1630 to a maritime center, named after the wild strawberries growing along the riverbank.

During summer months, costumed interpreters demonstrate traditional crafts, gardening techniques, and culinary practices from different historical periods.

The museum offers guided tours in multiple languages, seasonal ice skating at Puddle Dock Pond, and designated parking areas near the entrance.

Gardens throughout the museum grounds contain heirloom plant varieties that match specific time periods, from colonial herbs to Victorian ornamental species.
