What travelers are saying
- milliegordon2Southbury, CT654 contributionsWe made the "pilgrimage" to Rockland, Maine just to go to this museum. Unfortunately, our timing was off by a few days since the Andrew Wyeth exhibit was starting 3 days later. However, we enjoyed the museum very much. The Jamie Wyeth exhibit called "Unsettled" was underway and it was excellent.Written September 22, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mike MChampaign-Urbana, IL307 contributionsA good way to learn about lighthouses in general. Many good displays and exhibits here about the lights themselves, the lighthouse keepers and the history of them. There is a small fee then you look at your own pace. There is a small gift shop attached as well. Parking was difficult and we ended up parking two blocks up the street and walking down. Plenty of restaurants and shops that are also in the immediate areaWritten June 17, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

They will re-open in the spring 2015.Written December 31, 2014This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- MaineisleGalOwls Head, ME50 contributionsThe RHS has a huge amount of information about Rockland and environs. The folks there are enthusiastic and know so much about the area’s history. This is a great stop when visiting downtown Rockland. It is located in the lower level of the beautiful Rockland Public Library.Written July 13, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
