Museum
Royall House
The Royall House and Slave Quarters in Medford, MA, serves as a profound site of memory, reflecting the intertwined histories of wealth and bondage in pre-Revolutionary Massachusetts. Home to the largest slaveholding family in the region, it highlights the lives of over sixty enslaved individuals whose labor contributed to the Royall family's prosperity.
This museum not only showcases the historic interiors and landscapes but also emphasizes the ongoing struggle for justice and equality by elevating the narratives of enslaved and free Black people. Through its public programs and commitment to educating visitors, the Royall House aims to confront and address the legacy of slavery and systemic inequalities in society today.
