Historic Sites

Booklet


Forty-seven historical properties are catalogued in The Historical Site Guide of Attleboro, Massachusetts Booklet (PDF), which was originally compiled by Elizabeth Phillips and subsequently revised by a committee of the Attleboro Historical Commission. The sites are grouped in six different "clusters" and each listing is accompanied by a brief description. Citywide and cluster maps provide locations.

National Register of Historic Places


Of the 47 properties described in the Historical Site Guide, eleven locations are currently listed in the National Register of Historic Places website. Maintained by the National Park Service, part of the U.S. Department of the Interior, this is an official list of buildings and other sites considered worthy of preservation due to their historical significance. The table provides locations of the Attleboro entries on the National Register and indicates when they were added.
