Hartland Bridge

The Hartland Bridge in New Brunswick is the longest covered bridge in the world. The charming wooden tunnel, initially built in 1901, was the first way of crossing the St. John River without taking a boat. The bridge has a pedestrian walkway along its 1,282ft length, so you can take a leisurely stroll and enjoy the river and its surrounds.

North to Freedom

A bronze sculpture of a slave climbing out of a tunnel is Maine’s only official memorial to the Underground Railroad – the secret route taken by 19th-century slaves to escape to Canada from the American South. You’ll find it on a hill in Chamberlain Freedom Park in Brewer (although the tunnel itself was hidden under the historic Holyoke House, which was demolished in 1995). Although Maine was a free state, it was illegal to help a runaway slave, so the memorial also honors those who risked punishment to aid slaves along their path to freedom. Named after Brewer-born Civil War hero Brigadier General Joshua Chamberlain, the park also features a statue of the general and a monument to the 20th Maine Infantry.

Ice harvesting in South Bristol

Before the days of fridge-freezers, people got their ice by chopping chunks from frozen ponds and storing them in an ice house. At the Thompson Ice House Harvesting Museum in the small town of South Bristol, you can find out how ice harvested from a small pond in Maine by the same family and its decedents for 200 years made its way to restaurants and kitchens across the world. Although the ice trade business is no longer necessary to modern life, the non-profit working museum still keeps the traditions alive. The community gathers at Thompson Pond every Sunday of President’s Day weekend to cut ice, float the blocks down an ice-free channel and pull them into the ice house, where they’re stored through the hot summer months. As reward, community members are invited back in July for homemade ice cream and Thompson Pond ice.

Trolley nostalgia in Kennebunkport

Step back into yesteryear with a stroll around The Seashore Trolley Museum, which houses over 260 vehicles from all over the world. Founded in 1939, it’s the oldest and largest electric railway museum to preserve the vehicles that played such a big part in so many people’s lives. A highlight of any visit is the opportunity to watch the restoration process of a streetcar from the observation gallery. You can also ride one out along a rebuilt portion of the Atlantic Shore Line Railway.

The most photographed house in Maine

The beautiful Wedding Cake House is so-named not only because it looks good enough to take a bite out of – legend has it that a captain had to ship out to sea soon after his wedding and built the house as a wedding gift to make it up to his bride. The house is rarely open to the public, but it’s worth stopping by for a selfie or group photo in front of the exquisite building.
