About Biddeford, Maine

Biddeford is a city of 22,552 people in York County, where the Saco River reaches Saco Bay. Its European story began in the winter of 1616 and 1617, when the physician Richard Vines stayed at a harbor he named Winter Harbor, known today as Biddeford Pool. In 1630 the Plymouth Company gave Vines and John Oldham the territory on the river's south side, and in 1653 Massachusetts made the settlement on both banks a town called Saco.

That year Roger Spencer got permission to put up the first sawmill, and the town lived on lumber and fish. Wars with Native Americans brought decades of danger, as homes and mills at the falls were burned and settlers fled to Winter Harbor for safety. In 1703 a stone fort built in 1693 was reportedly captured, with 11 colonists killed and 24 carried off to Canada. The town was renamed Biddeford in 1718, after Bideford in Devon, England, and the fighting ended after Quebec fell in 1759.

  • Mills on a 40-foot dropAt Biddeford the Saco splits around two falls with a 40-foot drop, and that power first ran lumber and grain mills. The Laconia Company built in 1845 and the Pepperell Company in 1850, and Biddeford became a city in 1855. Irish, Albanian and French-Canadian workers filled mills that employed up to 12,000. The last Saco log drive came in 1943, and WestPoint Home, the last textile company, closed in 2009. Its buildings now hold housing and businesses.
  • An opera house in City HallAfter the old city building burned late in 1894, John Calvin Stevens designed Biddeford City Hall at 205 Main Street to replace it, with a theater in the Colonial Revival style inside. The theater reopened on January 20, 1896, and vaudeville acts played there. Now named City Theater, it seats nearly 500 and stages plays, concerts and comedy through the year.
  • A meetinghouse from 1758The master builder Nathaniel Perkins raised the First Parish Meetinghouse on Old Pool Road in 1758, and it is the oldest public building in the city. Even older is the John Tarr House, built about 1730 at the end of Ferry Lane looking out on the Saco, and counted among the oldest houses in Maine.
  • Guarding Biddeford PoolWood Island Light went up about a mile off the Pool in 1808, making it Maine's second-oldest lighthouse. The Fletcher's Neck Lifesaving Station opened in 1874 and sent out crews until 1971. During World War II the Army ran the Biddeford Pool Military Reservation from 1942 to 1945 on ground that is now the Abenakee Golf Club, with four concrete Panama mounts for 155-mm guns. Three of those mounts are still there.
  • French-Canadian BiddefordFrench-Canadian Catholic families from Quebec built Saint Joseph's Church on Elm Street, dedicated in 1883, and it is the tallest building in Maine. Since 1982 the city has honored that heritage every year at La Kermesse, a festival of live music and fireworks whose mascot is a green frog.
