10 Architectural Buildings in New Hampshire That You Shouldn't Miss

September 26, 2021 Esmeralda Fenner

If you are looking for diversity, you will certainly find it in New Hampshire. From lakes to beaches, waterfalls to woods and mountains to sea coast, the state has huge potential for outdoor vacations, including downhill or cross-country skiing in winter. With no less than seventy-five state parks that offer natural areas, hiking trails, beaches and historic sites, New Hampshire caters for a variety of tastes. Crawford Notch State Park in Harts Location has picturesque waterfalls, wonderful mountain views and opportunities for viewing wildlife. You can go hiking and fishing there as well as pay a visit to the historic Willey House. Monadnock State Park, unlike some other state parks, is open all year round for hiking. Want to go swimming? You will find five state park beaches along the coast of New Hampshire, such as Wallis Sands with its view of the rocky Isles of Shoals. On North Hampton State Beach and Jenness Beach you can have a picnic as well as a swim. When you've finally had your fill of fresh air, head for the Museum of New Hampshire History in Concord with exhibits focusing on heritage and traditions; children should enjoy them just as much as adults.

Zimmerman House

This is the only Wright designed house open to the public in New England. Advance reservations are strongly encouraged as tour groups are small and tours fill quickly. Guests leave from the front of the Currier Museum of Art at 150 Ash Street and travel via motor coach to the Zimmerman House.

This house tour leaves from the Currier Museum in a small bus. On the way the docent explains the history of the owners, shows their prior home and the neighborhood. The house is a longer and narrow one, still completely furnished including personal objects and clothing. The docents take pride in their work and are extremely passionate about presenting this house. I thoroughly enjoyed it and recommend. Your ticket includes admission to the Currier, so plan your time accordingly.

What a beautiful house, tremendous view, and fascinating story! Not ostentatious, the house reflects great craftsmanship and how the couple enjoyed life in the country - riding, hunting, fishing, gardening, reading, etc. The view was amazing, especially from the upstairs bedrooms. The staff was knowledgeable and offered insights about how the owners fortune came and went. Take the walk to the falls if you have time. Very cognizant of Covid protocol.

St. Anne's Church

This grand, historic Roman Catholic Church located in downtown Berlin, New Hampshire is over a century old. Built by French-Canadian immigrants seeking to create a solitary monument to the beauty of their faith amongst the utilitarian milltown surroundings, its simple, Romanesque brick exterior is contrasted by the awe-inspiring Italian Baroque artwork with Romanesque flares in its interior.

I attended a funeral there last week. Absolutely beautiful church. They were set up beautifully for social distancing with benches corded off with white ribbons so only every third row was accessible to use.
