Few cities along Maine’s coast have a history as closely tied to shipbuilding and seaborne trade as Camden. Camden Harbor opens onto Penobscot Bay, while the wooded Camden Hills rise directly behind the waterfront; Mount Battie in Camden Hills State Park is a familiar landmark above town. In the 19th century, local yards built sailing vessels for coastal trade, a legacy continued by the schooners that sail from the harbor today. Downtown retains brick commercial buildings, and the historic Camden Opera House remains a venue for performances and community events.
