Enjoy a relaxing afternoon and learn about early American history at the Nye Museum. Located just off Route 6A near the East Sandwich Post Office, the museum offers free tours of the Benjamin Nye Homestead, a historical landmark first established in 1678. Visitors are welcome to take self-guided tours of the Nye Mill Museum and to walk along the Old Fish Hatchery Trail, which includes an audio guide detailing the history of the property.
