ABBE MUSEUM

The Amerindian heritage in Maine has found a place of memory here. Amerindian archaeology, explanations of lifestyles and culture of yesteryear. The focus is on the Wabanaki people, who are native to the region. Researchers and patrons combine their energy to develop knowledge of this culture through thematic exhibitions. There is a second branch of the Abbe Museum, located within the Acadia National Park. The architecture of this building, of colonial Spanish and Italian Renaissance inspiration, is remarkable.
