Jabez Howland House

Pilgrim John Howland Society

The Jabez Howland House is the only existing house in Plymouth where Pilgrims actually spent time. The original 17th-century two-story timber framed house consisted of the porch, hall and bed chamber.  Jabez Howland, John and Elizabeth's son, lived here with his family until they sold the house in 1680.  It was a private residence until 1912 when it was purchased for a museum. The Howland House is a National Register of Historic Places site.
