Kittery

MAINE’S FIRST TOWN Kittery has the distinction of being the oldest town in the State of Maine, incorporated in 1647 -- more than a century and a quarter before the birth of the United States

Kittery remains one of the state’s most popular tourist attractions, renowned for its outlet stores and restaurants!

Kittery originally included what are now the towns of Eliot, Berwick, North Berwick and South Berwick. It was considered part of Massachusetts Bay Colony after 1652 and over time became a key center for trading and shipbuilding.

Several of the historic Isles of Shoals located six miles off the coast, including Appledore and Smuttynose Islands, are also part of Kittery. In past centuries the Isles were reportedly a stopover for pirates such as Blackbeard and Captain Kidd, and according to Seacoast lore lost treasure may still be hidden there!
