Salem was founded in 1626 by Roger Conant and a group of immigrants from Cape Ann. At first the settlement was named Naumkeag, but the settlers preferred to call it Salem, derived from the Hebrew word for peace. In 1628, they were joined by another group, led by John Endecott, from the Massachusetts Bay Colony. The events for which Salem is best remembered began in 1692. A local physician diagnosed several teenage girls as bewitched, which resulted in the hanging of 19 persons and one being crushed to death. When the hysteria had played itself out the following year, an edict was issued that released all people from prison who had been accused of witchcraft. Since then, no one has been hanged for witchcraft in the United States. The history of that period can be explored at the Salem Witch Museum. Numerous original papers from the trials are kept at the Peabody Essex Museum. The first provincial assembly of Massachusetts was held in Salem, in 1774. During the War of Independence and the War of 1812, Salem was a sanctuary for privateers. During peacetime, Salem ship captains took their vessels to distant ports and earned great wealth for their city. The tall ship Friendship, a replica of an East Indiaman merchant ship built two centuries earlier, is the largest wooden sailing vessel built in New England in more than 100 years.

Elegantly sprawling homes perched on rocky shorelines with expansive ocean-view lawns line the coast of Manchester-by-the-Sea. With casual seaside charm, the village imbues a friendly warmth paired with luxurious sophistication. It is a classic, adorable New England coastal town.
Beginning life as a fishing village, Manchester-by-the-Sea soon became a summer playground for the rich and famous. Well known for gorgeous seaside resorts and elaborate summer cottages, Manchester-by-the-Sea still maintains a quaint, cozy seaside village charm. Originally named Manchester, the town was renamed Manchester-by-the-Sea in the 1980s to avoid confusion with their neighbors, Manchester, New Hampshire, which, by the way, is not by the sea.
