Norridgewock Archeological District (also known as Old Point or Norridgewock Mission Site (ME 069-2) or Tracy Farm) is a national historic landmark district beside the Kennebec River in Madison, Maine. Until 1724, it was home to the Norridgewock Abenakis, whose turbulent history is indelibly linked with that of their Jesuit missionary, Sébastien Rale.

The district was designated a National Historic Landmark and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.[1][2]
