The best way to learn
the story of the
Pilgrims, and the Native Americans with whom they interacted, is to tour the
PILGRIM STORY, which
combines artifacts with historical information to illuminate the Pilgrim and Native
American story to 1692, when Plymouth Colony as an independent entity came to an end.
Beyond the Pilgrim Story gives
additional information about particular aspects of the Pilgrim story that have been of
interest to our visitors.
