Learn more about hotels in Hawthorne

Homeland of nineteenth-century American novelist, Nathaniel Hawthorne, the city encapsulates a fascinating intertwining of history and literature. Born on the 4th of July in 1804, Hawthorne's lineage is deeply rooted in this Massachusetts town. His evocative stories, replete with moral themes, reflect the town's pivotal role in American history, from the notorious Salem witch trials to the vibrant cultural hubs of today.

Having attended Bowdoin College, his first work, "Fanshawe" was quickly disowned by the author, but by 1837 his writing prowess was indisputable with the release of "Twice-Told Tales". Perhaps his most famous work, "The Scarlet Letter" was published in 1850 and has since immortalised his name in American literature.

But the tale of Hawthorne extends beyond the pages of his novels, with his close friendship to future president Franklin Pierce and his own globe-trotting adventures including a political appointment as consul in Europe.
