Welcome to the Portsmouth NH Town Website
Known for its rich history, cultural offerings and walkable downtown area filled with unique shops, cafés and parks, the city of Portsmouth is home to 20,670 residents. Located in Rockingham County, this seaport community is a popular tourist destination and upscale community.
Settled in 1623 by English emigrants the town was incorporated in 1653 and named Portsmouth in honor of the colony's founder, John Mason. He had been captain of the port of Portsmouth, England, in the county of Hampshire, for which New Hampshire is named. Once one of the nation's busiest ports and shipbuilding cities, Portsmouth's wealth was expressed in fine architecture. It contains significant examples of Colonial Georgian and Federal style homes, a selection of which are now museums. In 2008, Portsmouth was named one of the "Dozen Distinctive Destinations" by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
