The Museum was founded by a gift from George Peabody, a native of South Danvers (now Peabody), Mass., a wealthy American financier and philanthropist. The Museum opened its first exhibition consisting of a small number of prehistoric artifacts from the Merrimack Valley in Harvard University's Boylston Hall in 1867. The building that houses the Peabody was built in 1876 and expanded in 1888 and again in 1913.
