On Saturday, June 1, all thirty-eight Historic New England historic properties are open free to the public, including the Otis House Museum in Boston.

Join us for a fun day of fantastic storytelling!

Otis House is the last surviving mansion in Bowdoin Square in Boston’s West End neighborhood.

Charles Bulfinch designed the house for Harrison Gray Otis, a lawyer who was instrumental in developing nearby Beacon Hill, served in Congress, and was a mayor of Boston.

Learn about the family’s life in the Federal era and the later history of the house, when it served as a clinic and a middle-class boarding house.
