In Short
A key stop along the Freedom Trail, the Revere house dates back to 1677 and was already old when socially ascendant Paul bought it. Today, it's the last 17th-century house still standing in Boston (it was from this very doorstep that Revere snuck past the redcoats to carry out his midnight ride). Interpretive programs and tours delve into the domestic history of the times and the changing character of the North End.

The Paul revere House is one of many stops along Boston's Freedom Trail, where you follow a path of bricks around town that lead to different historical sites. His house gives you a window into what colonial life was like, as you take a walking tour of his home. Also on display are several of the items made by Revere, who was a noted silversmith.

It's hard to believe the attractions on the Freedom Trail in Boston are still free. The Paul Revere house features a fully guided tour, tons of historical artifacts, and a piece of American Revolutionary history that cannot be experienced anywhere else. The guides here are knowledgable, and the site itself is very well-upkept by the Boston historical society and national Parks Service. Seated on a quaint cobblestone street, you'll feel as if you stepped back in time when you visit this charming Colonial- possibly one of the oldest known houses in the United States. PROS: History comes to life! CONS: None

Any history buff or New England native will love coming to visit Paul Revere's Home. You get such a great sense of being able to step back in time. This is a fascinating, centuries old home and historic landmark that has been restored and is open to the public for visitors. I love just being able to get a closer look at what life was like during the time of Paul Revere. It is a great place to visit too if you include it as part of the Freedom trail walk which takes you through many of the wonderful landmarks available through the Boston area.
