Town of Wales

Androscoggin County

Wales is a town in Androscoggin County, incorporated on February 1, 1816 from Wales Plantation.

The early settlers arrived in 1773, some of whom came from Wales in Britain. The gentle hills in the town reflect the landscape of the old country.

With access to Sabattus Pond, the town is within easy reach of Lewiston-Auburn via Maine Route 132, and of Gardiner by way of Routes 9 and 126.
