Follow the History Trail

If you’re looking for a fun way to spend a day and if you’re also a history buff, visit the Windham Historical Society’s website and print out the map that can take you on the Windham History Trail. Developed by the Society and the Windham Public Library, the trail will take you to many of the historic sites that we have right here in town. In addition to seeing historic homes and buildings, you will travel to some lovely scenic places that may surprise you. The weather will be cooling down soon and late summer into the fall is a perfect time to take this adventure. Visit the Windham Historical website at windhamhistorical.org and click on “Resources.” Then click on “History Trail Map” and you’ll be all set to begin to travel through time.
