Established on March 17, 1938 as the first National Historic Site in the United States, Salem Maritime National Historic Site consists of nine acres of land and twelve historic structures along the Salem waterfront, as well as a downtown visitor center. Located in the urban setting of Salem, the park preserves and interprets over 600 years of New England's maritime history and global connections. The Scale House, erected in 1829, was an integral unit in the operations of the Salem-Beverly Customs District. The approved Master Plan for this site calls for utilizing this structure as an interior and exterior exhibit.
