The Nichols House Museum is a historic house museum in Beacon Hill that preserves the domestic interiors and collections of the Nichols family. The museum interprets the lives and tastes of a Boston family across the 19th and early 20th centuries and hosts guided tours of period rooms, decorative arts, and archival materials.
