Cape Cod Museum of Natural History 869 Main Street/Route 6A Brewster, MA 02631



The mission of the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History is to inspire appreciation and understanding of our natural environment through discovery and learning by integrating three strands of its organizational identity - as a museum of natural history, nature education center, and steward of conservation land.

As a small museum of natural history, we preserve, exhibit, and interpret our own collections of natural history artifacts and display relevant traveling and loan exhibits.

As a nature education center, we are a gathering place for citizen scientists and amateur naturalists, and as a forum for informed discussion of important issues related to the natural world, especially on Cape Cod.

As a steward of 400-plus acres of museum-owned land in Stoney Brook Valley and Brewster conservation land adjacent to the museum, we monitor and protect the land and focus our programming on its varied habitats – our outdoor classroom and teaching tool.
