About Lawrence Heritage State Park

Three separate units on or near the Merrimack River make up this park, which focuses on the industrial history of Lawrence rather than natural scenery. The land preserves sites tied to the city's manufacturing past along the riverfront. It is managed by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
