It looks like someone is all set to have a good time at Pilgrim Monument Provincetown. If that is something you are pursuing, then read this post until the end. 

If you are looking forward to having a fun time, you've got to visit Provincetown, and while you are at it, Pilgrim Monument is a must-visit. What makes it so amazing is its invigorating climb of 252 feet. It is visible from nearly everywhere in town, with 116 steps and 60 ramps up to the breathtaking 360-degree view of Provincetown.

Pilgrim Monument Access Project

This project refers to the construction of an inclined elevator that extends the Pilgrim Monument and Provincetown Museum's front door to Bradford Street. Here are some details you should look into: 

Visiting hours: 9 AM – 7 PM

Prices: $18 admission fee for adults 

Events: Run to the top, annual lighting, and PMPM gala

Activities: Climbing monument stairs, photography, shopping, shallop café dining, museum exhibits, and historic sightseeing

This is a historic landmark that ages back to the year 1910 to commemorate the landing of the Mayflower Pilgrims in the "new world" and the signing of the Mayflower Compact. 

Now, for those who don't want to climb up the Monument, the Museum, on the other hand, has an array of historical displays, and the beautiful grounds are the best views to watch all the hustle and bustle of the busy town. In the Museum, you'll be able to experience the exhibits showcasing the Monument's building, the Mayflower Pilgrims' arrival, the town's rich maritime history, and the early days of the modern American Theater in Provincetown. Besides that, there's a recreation of a 19th-century sea captain's parlor at home and his quarters at sea, a diorama of the Mayflower Compact being signed aboard the Mayflower in Provincetown Harbor and a scaled model of the first theater of the Provincetown Players. 

Irrespective of the age, you'll definitely be fascinated by the options of artifacts on display, including a Polar Bear, musk ox, and Inuit objects brought back by Provincetown native son Donald B. MacMillan. He explored the Arctic with explorer Robert E. Peary. So, if you enjoy exploring history, this could be heaven on earth for you.
