Education became an important local “industry” with the establishment of three academic institutions. Phillips Academy, founded in 1770, is one of the nation’s oldest preparatory schools. Abbott Academy, established in 1828 as one of New England’s first female academies, merged with Phillips Academy in 1973. The Andover Theological Seminary (1807), now part of Andover Newton Theological Seminary and the oldest graduate school of theology in the United States, was responsible for the American missionary movement.
Whether it’s hitting the links at one of the world class golf courses, hiking or cross country skiing along the many trails running through conservation lands, or canoeing along the pristine Shawsheen River, there’s something for everyone. Harold Parker State Forest provides an additional 3,000 acres of open space for fishing, camping, biking, and horseback riding. With its numerous lodging options Andover is an ideal location to settle with your family. Come and make Andover your home.

Andover was settled in 1636 under the Native American name of Cochichawicke, a local waterway. The community was incorporated in 1646 as the Town of Andover, named after a town in England where many of its settlers originated. Andover’s economic base evolved from agriculture to industry during the 18th century. The region's first powder mill was established in 1775; the manufacture of paper began in 1789; and in the early nineteenth century, several textile mills prospered.
Cultural attractions abound in the community and surrounding area, including a verity of performing arts, museums, and historical sites. Professional minor league baseball and hockey can be viewed at nearby venues. The town offers a myriad of opportunities to explore and enjoy the great outdoors.
