SALEM, MASSACHUSETTS

ART. MEET. SHOP. EAT.
ALL WITHIN STEPS

Still Making History

That’s our tagline, but it’s so much more. Our endless history is part of what makes Salem come to life, as our fascinating past determines where we’ll go next. Our shops, festivities, museums, tours, and even restaurants are all influenced in some small way by the events and changes the city has gone through over the centuries. Salem isn’t just a place. It’s witches, and ocean ships, making waves through literature, settlers, pirates and trading.
