About the Buildings Strawbery Banke Museum is unique in preserving neighborhood buildings original to their sites, buildings from other Portsmouth locations rescued from demolition, and a vast collection of objects from Portsmouth’s past.

32 buildings at Strawbery Banke are on their original sites. Four were moved here to save them from demolition. Research and archaeology provide an historical background for the restorations. Additional research into the lives of former residents continues the story and provides the basis for interpretation.
