During Open House\, guests interact with tour guides and hear the stories of the people and events that make each of our 38 properties unique. In Salem\, Historic New England operates Phillips House and Gedney House. Phillips House is the only mansion open to the public on Chestnut Street. Here\, we tell the story of five generations of a prominent Salem family\, and talk about the changing lives at the turn of the 20th century. Gedney House is one of the oldest houses in Salem\, and one of only two still standing that has a connection to the Witch Trials of 1692. Gedney House is a unique architectural gem that illustrates 17th century building practices and architectural change over time. During Open House\, everyone is welcome to join us to learn more about these special places. \nBoth properties provide different insights into the lives of people living in Salem from the 17th century through the 20th century. During the visit\, guests learn about the people behind some of the history’s biggest moments – from Mary Gedney\, a widow operating her own tavern during the 1692 Witch Trials\, to Stephen and Anna Phillips\, who were both members of long lines of Salem sea-faring and political families in the 20th century. We invite guests to ask questions\, be in the spaces\, and learn more about the everyday history of New Englanders. Neighbors are always welcome at Historic New England sites\, with town residents receiving free entry to properties in their communities for regular tours (additional fees apply for special events and programs). \nVisitors are welcome any time throughout the day at both sites. Please note that entry to both Phillips House and Gedney House requires stairs to enter and to view the houses in their entirety.

It was the point of no return in the Salem Witchcraft Hysteria. Her name was Bridget Bishop. \nPreviously accused in 1680\, she was the only victim not executed in a group. Remembering her as a fellow human being is crucial to understanding the madness that ensued. Join us in person at the Salem Witch Trials Memorial on Charter Street on June 10th at 10 am for a commemoration of the 334th anniversary of the death of the first victim of the 1692 Salem Witchcraft Hysteria. The short remembrance will honor this wronged woman – who was also a domestic abuse survivor – and acknowledge all victims and survivors of abuse\, prejudice\, and ignorance – past and present. This will include 17th-century poems\, floral tributes\, and information about Bridget’s life. \nFlowers donated by Voices Against Injustice will be available for the public to place tributes on the memorial stones of their choice. The remembrance will be live-streamed and available for replay via Instagram @creativecollectivema and @thepetticoatpages1693 URL:https://www.salem400.org/event/remembering-bridget/ LOCATION:Witch Trials Memorial\, 24 Liberty Street\, Salem\, MA\, 01970 ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.salem400.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/20250919_100541-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260611 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260612 DTSTAMP:20260422T125005 CREATED:20251215T174933Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260204T140427Z UID:10000046-1781136000-1781222399@www.salem400.org SUMMARY:Opening Day of Food at 400+ Exhibit at Old Town Hall DESCRIPTION:Opening Day of Food at 400+\n June 11th \n Food at 400+ will explore Salem’s history through the lens of food\, fishing\, farming\, spice trades\, as well as culinary\, hospitality\, and related aspects\, in creative and experiential ways.
