This restored 1835 rowhouse, built on property that once belonged to Paul Revere, seamlessly incorporates original historic features – foundations, fireplaces, and stairways – with modern museum amenities, exhibits, a museum shop, and public restrooms.

Enjoy complimentary refreshments of mulled cider and delicious treats based on 18th century recipes in the Pierce-Hichborn House. Museum interpreters inside the Paul Revere House explain the sometimes surprising, colonial observances of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s Day.

Each afternoon from noon to 4:00 talented musician, R. P. Hale plays overtures, melodies, and Anglican Advent songs on a harpsichord and hammered dulcimer and local artisans, Fred Lawson and Larry Leonard demonstrate their respective colonial trades and sell examples of their beautiful, handmade baskets and tinware in our new education center.

For further information, please call the Revere House at 617-523-2338 or visit the museum’s website, www.paulreverehouse.org.

From November 1 to April 14 the Revere House is open daily from 9:30 AM to 4:15 PM except Mondays in January, February, and March. The museum is closed on Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s Day.
