Paul Revere sold the house in 1800 and his great grandson bought it in 1902 to prevent demolition. It became one of the first historic house museum in the US.

It’s only 4 rooms, but a great time capsule and worth the quick trip at the end of the freedom trail , and before the deliciousness of north end!

Aga Artka

Affordable admission. Great to have guides in every room. Did you know the kitchen used to be in the basement ? The Reveres moved it up, when they moved in.

Paul lived here with his 16(!) children. Due to his family size he qualified for an exception to quarter British troops. 90% of his home's structure is per its original design. Learn more via our blog Read more

HISTORY

Starting from his home, Paul Revere set out on his famous midnight ride in 1775 to warn his compatriots that the British were coming. Built in 1680, it is one of the oldest houses in downtown Boston .

This is a good quick historical site with knowledgable staff . The construction of the new Visitors Center hasn't hurt the experience.

James C

Awesome point along the Freedom Trail . Stop in its quick and worth the effort.

Gwen Cummings

Very small so you don't need a ton of time. Also no photography allowed so leave your cameras at home. But a great historical landmark !

Rodrigo Artavia

Go early place, the place closes super early

Javier Delgado Esteban

Interesting little museum on Paul Revere’s house kept as close as as possible to the original

Michael Sales

Cheap ,small, museum . Easily, completed in under a half hour. Cool to see, and even better if a school group did not just arrive behind you.

Megan McDonald

Definitely a must see in Boston. The Paul Revere house is cash only so plan accordingly!
