We
are located on the campus of Southern Maine Community College Fort Road,
South Portland ME. Phone: +1 503 287 3453 Email: contact@portlandharbormuseum.org
The
museum lies within the granite walls of 19th century Fort
Preble. Its exhibits, lectures and tours chronicle the history and
present-day life of the port.
Portland
Harbor is a busy place. Our campus borders the main ship channel. During
your visit there is a good chance that you will see a few of the passing
vessels. Fort Gorges, a pre-Civil War fort lies on the other side
of the ship channel.
A
granite jetty joins Spring Point Ledge Light
to the museum campus. The structure is open for scheduled tours during
the summer months. The light, itself, remains an active Coast Guard
beacon. Bug Light at the entrance to Portland Harbor and Liberty
Ship Memorial Park are within a mile of the museum door.
