October marks the 88th anniversary of Connecticut Landmarks, originally known as the Antiquarian & Landmarks Society. Since October 15, 1936, our organization has been dedicated to preserving and interpreting the 11 historic properties and collections in our care.

Much has changed over the course of 88 years, but our commitment to inspiring an understanding of our complex past through our historic sites remains central to all we do. Our programs and tours have welcomed visitors to our historic sites to explore the lives of Connecticut residents, connect with their ancestors, share historically marginalized stories, learn new skills, and feel empowered to use the lessons of the past to make the world a better place today. We’re eager to continue welcoming families, friends, and history-lovers to our historic properties, programs—new additions and beloved favorites—and share with you the exciting preservation efforts to come.

Connecticut Landmarks would not exist without the dedication of its staff, volunteers, and board members – past, present, and future. Most importantly, our organization thrives because of our visitors, members, and generous donors. Thank you for your continued support!
As we usher in the next 88 years, please consider supporting the future of Connecticut Landmarks with a donation or membership. Your gift will support the important preservation and storytelling work we do for years to come.
