Highlights
  • Boston Common - This 44-acre park was originally settled by the first white settler, who was later displaced by Puritans. It was also a site for public executions.
  • Massachusetts State House - Paul Revere and Samuel Adams, both Freemasons, oversaw the laying of the building’s cornerstone over 200 years ago, in contrast to the nearby Old State House.
  • Park Street Church - Known as “Brimstone Corner,” this charming church hosted the first performance of a popular patriotic song in 1831.
  • Granary Burying Ground - Despite its small size, this cemetery is the final resting place of many significant historical figures, including the parents of Benjamin Franklin and Paul Revere.
  • King’s Chapel - Established in 1686, this was Boston’s first Anglican church. The Puritans were so opposed to it that they hurled trash and insults at the celebrants during the cornerstone ceremony.
  • Old Corner Bookstore - The oldest commercial building in downtown Boston, this bookstore was the hub for the leading publisher of the 19th century. Notable authors like Nathaniel Hawthorne, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Charles Dickens visited here.

  • Old State House - The oldest public building still standing in Boston.
  • Boston Massacre Site - The site where five civilians were killed in a clash between Bostonians and British soldiers, sparking the lead-up to the Revolutionary War.
  • Faneuil Hall Marketplace - Often called “The Cradle of Liberty,” this building hosted the first town meeting in the American colonies.
  • The Paul Revere House - Built in 1680, this is the only home on the Freedom Trail and was once owned by the famous Paul Revere.
  • Old North Church & Historic Site - Known for the “one if by land, two if by sea” signal from Paul Revere’s midnight ride.
  • Copp’s Hill Burying Ground - Named after a local shoemaker, this cemetery is the final resting place for many North End residents.
  • USS Constitution - Nicknamed “Old Ironsides,” this is the oldest commissioned warship still afloat.
