• Lowell National Historical Park Visitors Center
  "This was an unexpected delight"
  "If you are near Lowell, MA, you should for sure go to the Visitor Center. When you park, bring your pass inside and they will validate it. Lowell was the beginning and center of our country's industrial revolution and it revolves around textiles. The Center has good displays and a movie that explain..."s it all. From there you can walk easily to a number of sites that relate to this from a working textile mill, to a quilt museum, see the canals, ride the trolley or go to the Natioinal Textile Museum. This may not sound interesting, but it is. It is very informative as you consider that most of our textiles are now down overseas. " More >
• American Textile History Museum
  "Interesting local history"
  "We visited the National Park textile mill exhibits as well as the Quilt Museum in Lowell, which were all interesting, but in the afternoon we discovered the American Textile History Museum and it was THE BEST. It covers all the history that the others show plus a lot more from the early days to mod..."ern times. Exhibits were very well laid out. If you only have time for one museum, I'd pick this one. It has it all! " More >
• American Textile History Museum
  "Interesting exhibits"
  "This museum walks you through the industrialization of the textile industry...particularly in Lowell. It is self paced and self guided...lots of signage that explains what you are seeing. One of the most impressive exhibits is the very large loom. It is very interesting to watch how it works and ..."to think about the incredible engineering involved. The museum often also offers a special exhibit related to textiles. They may also offer activities for children. Check their website. NB: Skip the restaurant. The city of Lowell offers many better restaurant choices. " More >
