Source

Roxbury Heritage State Park is a historical park located in the oldest part of Roxbury, which was once a separate town before being annexed by Boston, Massachusetts in 1868. The park is a testament to the rich history of the area and offers a unique opportunity to explore the past in a beautiful and serene setting.

The Dillaway-Thomas House

The centerpiece of Roxbury Heritage State Park is the Dillaway-Thomas House. This large colonial structure, built in 1750, is believed to be the oldest surviving house in Roxbury. The house stands as a symbol of the area's colonial past and offers a glimpse into the lives of the people who lived there centuries ago.

Exhibits at the Dillaway-Thomas House

The Dillaway-Thomas House was opened to the public in 1992. Inside, visitors can explore exhibits that trace the history of Roxbury from its earliest days to the present. These exhibits provide a fascinating insight into the evolution of the area and its people over the centuries.
