Though the Historical Society was founded
in 1870, this this beautiful museum was constructed in 1971-1972
through the generosity of the late Sceva Speare, a prominent business
man. It was named in honor of his wife, Florence Hyde Speare.
The museum contains a wealth of information regarding Nashua's
origins, its evolution into a mill town in the 1800's, it's continued
growth as a city, and as a leading manufacturing and technological
center. Ever changing exhibits bring alive scenes of other eras,
complete with authentic costuming, furnishings and accessories. |
