Five GREAT Reasons to Make Kittery YOUR Home:

Kittery Shipyard.

Naval Shipyard Watching

Kittery is home to the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, which has had its share of famous residents and visitors. George Washington visited the shipyard location in 1789 before it was officially built in 1800. Nearly 100 years later, David Farragut, of “Damn the torpedoes – full speed ahead”  Civil War fame, died at the Shipyard in 1870.

Originally commissioned in building wooden warships, the Naval Shipyard is still active today refurnishing and maintaining nuclear submarines.

Lobstah

Pictured above is Chris- one of the locals who catch that famous Maine lobster (and is my personal hero!). The traps that Chris is pictured with are what lobstermen to this day use to trap lobster- the logistics of which haven't been changed for the last few hundred years!

The buoys to the right of Chris' pants are attached to the traps and float above the surface and are a common sight in the local harbors. Each local lobstermen has their own colour and pattern to distinguish each other's traps.

Kittery Library

History Captured

One of the most famous buildings in all of Kittery, the Rice Library has served many purposes through the years. Still in use as a public library to this day, the second floor was once a meeting place for generals during the Civil War. Built in 1888, this historic building features incredible architecture and features like an Italian Marble fireplace.
