Lowell National Historical Park
A ranger-guided trip down the Industrial Canyon on part of Lowell's 5.6 mile canal system is one of the signature experiences at Lowell National Historical Park.
Lowell’s water-powered textile mills catapulted the nation – including immigrant families and early female factory workers – into an uncertain new industrial era. Nearly 200 years later, the changes that began here still reverberate in our shifting global economy. Explore Lowell, a living testament to the dynamic human story of the industrial revolution.
