The basics

Where taxes were once collected on incoming cargo, the Custom House in Salem is now a historic landmark with exhibits and tours. Architectural flourishes like detailed wood carvings, high ceilings, and a wide staircase enhance the interior, which can be explored in about an hour, including the exhibit of Nathaniel Hawthorne’s office. Some visitors simply admire the architecture from the outside during a visit to the wider Salem Maritime National Historic Site.
