Lowell Heritage State Park, State park in Lowell, Massachusetts, United States
The 60-acre park extends along the Merrimack River, featuring exhibits about the industrial heritage and a network of historic canals from textile mills.
Established in 1974, this park served as the foundation for the creation of Lowell National Historical Park, which followed in 1978 to preserve industrial history.
Educational programs at the Tsongas Industrial History Center allow students to learn about textile manufacturing and the lives of factory workers from different backgrounds.
Visitors can access the park through multiple entry points along Pawtucket Boulevard, with free parking available near the Rynne Bathhouse and Market Mills.
The park maintains a boat ramp on Route 113 and includes the Sampas Pavilion, where summer concerts take place against the backdrop of historic waterways.
