Methuen has played a significant role in this country's industrial revolution, which began in the Merrimack Valley. In the 19th century, the mills along the Spicket River and Spicket Falls produced hats, shoes and textiles. Today you can still see the legacies of industrial wealth in the mill buildings, as well as in the estate and civic architecture of Methuen's millionaires, the Searles, Tenney and Nevins families.
Methuen is also home of the Methuen Memorial Music Hall, which hosts the first concert organ in the United States. The Organ Hall hosts a Wednesday evening concert series during the summer months and sponsors special event concerts throughout the year.
