“I don’t like to doze by the fire. I like adventures, and I’m going to find some.” - Jo March, Little Women

Built in the early 1700s, The Wayside has been home to three literary families: the Alcotts, Hawthornes, and the Lothrops. The first literary site added to the National Park Service. The Wayside is the only National Historic Landmark to have been lived in by three well-known literary families. Their home and works span more than three centuries.

The Alcotts, who owned the house from 1845-1852, (before selling to Nathaniel Hawthorne) called it "Hillside." Louisa May Alcott lived here with her parents and her three sisters, Anna (Meg) 14, Elizabeth (Beth) 9, and May (Amy), 4. The four sisters returned to their childhood home in Concord, Massachusetts in Louisa’s 1868 classic, Little Women, where many of the events described in the book happened. ⁣⁣
