The American Textile History Museum, once located in Lowell, Massachusetts, dedicated itself to documenting the significance of textiles in America's cultural and industrial heritage. Established in 1960 and originally affiliated with the Smithsonian Institution, the museum chronicled the American textile industry from its early domestic origins to its evolution into a global powerhouse.

Despite its closure in 2016 due to financial challenges, the museum's extensive collections remain a vital resource for researchers and historians. Many artifacts and archives have been transferred to other institutions, ensuring that the legacy of the textile industry and its influence on American history continues to be preserved and accessible.
