Rye is a town with deep roots—and few places show those roots like the Timothy Knapp House.
Built in the 1600s, this landmark has stood for more than three centuries.

But time leaves its mark. Historic homes require careful stewardship—and timely restoration.

Please join us as we launch a campaign to refurbish and preserve the Timothy Knapp House: to strengthen the structure, protect its historic character, and ensure it can continue serving Rye as a place of learning, research, and community connection.

When you give, you’re not only restoring a building. You’re preserving Rye’s story—so children, families, and future residents can understand where this community began.

Please donate today, and help Rye’s history remain standing.
