Carpenter Museum, Local history museum in Rehoboth, Massachusetts, United States.

The Carpenter Museum features exhibit rooms, artifact storage areas, and a social room within a building modeled after a 1760 gambrel-roofed house.

Established during the American Bicentennial year in 1976, the museum opened in 1978 through donations from Elsie and E. Winsor Carpenter to house the Rehoboth Antiquarian Society collection.

The museum houses over 4,000 artifacts documenting the regional history, including an 18th-century kitchen with authentic hearth, maps, and artwork of historic Rehoboth.

The E. Otis Dyer Jr. Research Center provides visitors with resources for genealogical research, including cemetery maps, historic house information, and family biographies.

The museum features an exhibit barn constructed in 1993 using local wood, displaying artifacts from agriculture, textiles, industry, and war throughout Rehoboth's centuries.
