Adams National Historical Park is dedicated to the first father-son duo to both become presidents of the United States, John Adams and John Quincy Adams. This family also made many other contributions to our country’s history, and you can learn about all of them on your tour. The park includes homes on the Adams estate that were the birthplaces for both men as well as the beautiful Peacefield, which was home to four generations of John Adams’s family. The Stone Library is also located here. It was started with John Quincy Adams’s personal library. This family is deeply embedded in our nation’s history, and this beautiful park will make history come alive.
