Step back in time along the Freedom Trail. It features a unique blend of museums, historic markets, and other attractions that "tell the story of the American Revolution and beyond." Here are a few sites and tours you can discover near our Cambridge apartments:

Paul Revere House

Built around 1680, the Paul Revere House is where legendary patriot Paul Revere lived between 1770 and 1800. It is the only home along the Freedom Trail. During your visit, you'll learn about Revere's family, business ventures, and revolutionary acts.

Faneuil Hall

Called the "Cradle of Liberty," Faneuil Hall was the site of the first town meeting in America. Today, it's one of the top places to visit in Boston. You'll find both local and national shops, delicious restaurants, and street performers who show off their jaw-dropping routines.

USS Constitution

Launched in Boston in 1797, the USS Constitution is now the oldest commissioned warship still afloat. After climbing aboard, you'll enjoy a "fascinating journey back to key colonial conflicts." The fun includes interactive exhibits and hands-on programs for a unique day out unlike any other.

Walk into History in Reverse Tour

Starting at Faneuil Hall, the Walk into History in Reverse Tour is the Freedom Trail Foundation's most popular introductory tour. It offers a fun look into 11 of the 16 sites along the trail.
