# About the History list

You can use the History list to keep track of and return to Web pages you previously visited — today, two days ago, last week, or weeks ago. You can see the contents of the History list in three places: the History pane, the Go menu, and the History window (on the Window menu, click History). To return to a Web page you find in the History list, click the page you want.
