Visit the home of Paul Revere, an unassuming silversmith and express rider who was transformed into a national legend in the late night hours of April 18, 1775.
The Paul Revere House, a 1680-built home that is the oldest remaining building in downtown Boston, features a glimpse into the personal life of this American hero.
You'll also find information on re-creating the famous Midnight Ride on your own, and during the Patriot's Day celebration in Boston re-enactors ride the path of the legendary run for spectators. Watch as the history lessons you learned in the classroom come alive at the Paul Revere House, and be sure to bring along a camera so you can forever capture the images of the home of this national icon.
The Old North Church, built in 1723, is an Episcopal Church that is still active today. It was in this beautiful and historic building that the two lanterns were hung to inform Paul Revere that the British were approaching by sea.
