Historic Deerfield

84B Old Main Street

Deerfield, Massachusetts 01342

Historic Deerfield is a museum of early American life situated in an authentic 18th-century New England village in the Connecticut River Valley of Massachusetts. Its historic houses and world-famous collection of early American decorative arts open doors to new perspectives that inspire people to seek a deeper understanding of themselves, their communities, and the world.

Visitors can visit the village and walk along Old Main Street, a public street, at any time of the year.

Flynt Center of Early New England Life

The Flynt Center of Early New England Life, which opened in 1998, provides a 27,000 square-foot, state-of-the-art facility containing climate-controlled exhibition galleries, visible storage area, and collection storage for the museum’s most sensitive and highly valued collections. This facility, funded in part by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, enables Historic Deerfield to display its collections in thematic ways that the historic houses do not allow.

The Flynt Center is open for self-guided tours during the regular season, and weekends during the winter season, from 9:30am to 4:30pm. This facility is fully accessible.
