Way back in 1807, when Wiscasset was the busiest sea port east of Boston, Judge Silas Lee built an impressive regency style mansion in the town. The mansion changed hands several times before being bought and extended by Captain Richard Tucker.

The Tucker family resolutely preserved this stately old home despite serious financial difficulties which forced them at one point to take in boarders to help cover costs. Today Castle Tucker belongs to Historic New England and visitors are welcome to come and join a guided tour to see much of the original furnishings, learn some Wiscasset history and to admire the wonderful views over Sheepscot River.
