Descrizione

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
The Aptucxet Trading Post Museum is a small open-air historical museum in Bourne, Massachusetts. The main attraction is a replica of the 17th-century Aptucxet Trading Post which was built by the Pilgrims of Plymouth Colony in order to trade with the Wampanoag Indians and the Dutch. The museum also features a replica of a 19th-century saltworks, the relocated 19th-century Gray Gables Railroad Station, and a wooden smock windmill.

Aptucxet Trading Post

In 1627, English colonists from Plymouth Colony established a trading post about 20 miles (32 km) south of Plymouth at Aptucxet on the Manamet River (also known as the Manomet or Monument River) on upper Cape Cod. The post was the colonists' first permanent settlement on Cape Cod, although they had previously visited the Manamet River area to trade for corn and beans and to search for a missing colonist.

Saltworks

The museum also features a replica saltworks similar to ones that were used in the area to manufacture sea salt in the 1800s. The saltworks consist of square wooden vats where seawater was left to evaporate. Each vat is equipped with a sliding hipped roof that can be used to protect it from dew and rain. The replica saltworks were built in 1967 and rebuilt in 2000 and 2014.

Gray Gables Railroad Station

The museum houses the original station building of the nearby defunct Gray Gables Railroad Station. It was built in 1892 near President Grover Cleveland's summer home of Gray Gables and included a direct telegraph line to Washington, DC. The station closed in the 1940s and was purchased by the Bourne Historical Society in 1976. It was relocated to the Aptucxet Trading Post Museum in 1977 and renovated in 2014
