Old South Meeting House

What a great experience! I’m going to echo others and recommend you get the dual tickets! It’s such a short walk and a lot to learn! I also highly recommend taking a tour!!! I got the Slavery and Resistance tour. It was so good! Informative! I learned alot and it goes to both buildings! We also got to go on the second level in the meeting hall! If you take this tour I recommend going to the meeting hall looking around and then doing the tour before which will lead you to the next building where you can stay and look around! It’s great!!!!! You have to stop here!!!! There’s so much to read and look at! Can’t recommend enough, especially the tour!! So engaging!

Really cool place! Pro tip: purchase the combined ticket so you can also visit the Old State House which is also very cool! I loved how they had some exhibits explaining the history and people who were in the Old South Meeting House. What’s super cool is that you can even sit in the pew boxes except the one that is preserved from the Revolutionary Period. Highly recommend! Def a must-stop while on the Freedom Trail.

Old south meeting house has an amazing museum which is very informative. My friend and I visited this place a few years ago and we had a great experience going through the musuem in detail. We also scheduled a tour through revolutionary spaces and did that as well. At the front desk, they also have passport stamps if you want to collect them. I would definitely check this place out another time. There is also a T located very close to this place, so it is easily accessible by public transportation.

Fantastic Historical site! We were visiting this summer the USA East Coast for us to learn more about the colonial history of New England. If you are like us interested in History then this is the place to go! This building was first built in 1729 (then rebuilt), I believe that at that time, it was one of the largest building in colonial Boston. It is also here that the Boston Massacre happened in 1770. This is an absolute must visit site and it on the freedom trail as number 8. One of my lucky numbers....

Where it all started! Well, the Tea Party at any rate, this meeting house was the place from where the protest for which Boston is famous grew. Inside there is a small but informative museum focusing on the history of pre-revolutionary Boston and the whole period of the Revolutionary War. The interior as been preserved and restored as an 18th century meeting house and painted a very sober white.

Very cool place to check out. It was super interesting to see how people back in the day would use the space. The meeting house is set up like it was when people during the revolution used it. The exhibits were also really informative and had nice graphics. I recommend buying the dual ticket for this and the old state house ($15 adults, $13 for students).

Old South Meeting House was the largest building in colonial Boston and the stage for some of the most dramatic events leading up to the American Revolution. Built as a Puritan meeting house in 1729, Old South Meeting House stands today as one of the nation’s most important colonial sites, one of the country’s first public historic conservation efforts, and one of the earliest museums of American history.

Went with the EBT discount. Great for tourists and locals should know the place as well. Good thrift buys in the shop as well, which is rare for a museum.
