This beautiful Italianate building designed by Ammi Young in 1855 house the US Custom House on the second floor. Since the port of Barnstable was one of the busiest in the state of Massachusetts, this was a very important custom house. A post office claimed the first floor. In 1960, the Federal government gave the state of Massachusetts control over the building. Today it is home to the US Coast Guard Heritage Museum. It is located on Cobb Hill across the street from the Unitarian Universalist Church and Cobb Hill Cemetery. 

Historic Old Jail in Barnstable, MA is reportedly haunted as well. Ghost hunters report seeing apparitions and hearing voices. They also see objects moving. A few years ago it was possible to spend the night here with paranormal researchers. You can contact the Cape & Islands Paranormal Research Society, if you would like to do something like that.  On the history side, this jail was built in 1690 and held six inmates. It served as the Barnstable County Jail until 1805. It was moved to its current location in the 1970s. It is on Route 6A (Main Street) opposite the Unitarian Church and beside the Coast Guard Museum.

This Unitarian Universalist Church was established in 1639. It is located on Route 6A or Main Street in Barnstable.
