What is Iconic Wellfleet?

  • Wellfleet Historical Society 266 Main Street Wellfleet, MA 02667 USA (map)

We’re all here for a reason. Some are born here and others wash ashore, each tide seeming to bring more. This town has interesting people, beautiful scenery and great weather for a few months a year. But it is even more than that, IT CAPTURES the HEART.

Close your eyes and think of Wellfleet. What do you see?

Is it a building - a place - a person? 

Where is the first place you visit when you’ve been away for a time and return? What is the first thing you see that makes you think, “I’m Back!” Who do you hope to run into? What speaks to you?

We all know the “typicals” because they’ve been painted and photographed thousands of times. And if Uncle Tim’s Bridge is your choice let us know - you’ve got plenty of company. 

Still, we’re looking for even more. Think about it, compare notes with friends and join the Wellfleet Historical Society’s search for answers.
