The Freedom Trail continues down Hull St. to Commercial St. and travels to the next stop the USS Constitution (1797) which is the oldest warship in the US Navy.  

Built to protect American Merchant Ships from pirates off the coast of North Africa, it was made famous during the War of 1812 where it never lost a battle.

It earned the name “Old Ironsides” because the ship was so strong (it is made out of wood) that the cannonballs from British ships would bounce harmlessly off its sides.

The USS Constitution is currently in dry dock but can still be viewed at the location.  

It is open to the public for free guided tours, but tours are now limited due to the construction. For information on touring the ship, read our post .

BOSTON COMMON

Massachusetts state house, park street church, granary burying ground, king’s chapel & burying ground, boston latin school site/benjamin franklin statue, old corner bookstore, old south meeting house, old state house museum, boston massacre site, faneuil hall, paul revere house, old north church, copp’s hill burying ground, uss constitution - old ironsides, bunker hill monument.

The Boston Common is America’s oldest public park, purchased from Wm. Blackstone in 1635 to be used as common grazing land for the feeding of  cattell . The British militia used it as a  trayning  field.  

The Common has also been the site of hangings, duels, public celebrations and spirited oratory. Today it continues to host public celebrations as well as concerts, ice skating, Shakespearean plays, holiday festivities, sports activities and public rallies.  

Designed by Charles Bulfinch, the State House was completed in January 1798 at a cost of $133,333 (more than five times the budget). John Hancock, a wealthy merchant, patriot, signer of the Declaration of Independence and the first elected Governor of Massachusetts originally owned the land. The oldest building on Beacon Hill is now the seat of the Massachusetts state government. The golden dome, one of Boston’s distinguishing landmarks, wasn’t always gilded. It was originally built of wood. Paul Revere & Sons was commissioned in 1802 to cover it with copper to prevent water leakage. In 1874, the dome was gilded with 23-karat gold leaf.

Park Street Church acquired the nickname Brimstone Corner, both in reference to the fire-and-brimstone sermons and to the gun powder that was stored in the crypt during the War of 1812. Founded in 1809, the Church’s 217-foot white steeple was the first landmark a traveler saw upon approaching Boston.  

On July 4, 1829, abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison gave his first public anti-slavery address here, and two years later, on July 4, the hymn America, better known as My Country ’Tis of Thee, was first sung on the Church steps. 

So named because of its proximity to Boston’s first granary, this is the most visited burying ground in Boston and the final resting place of many prominent Bostonians. Buried here are John Hancock, Samuel Adams, nine governors, all five Boston Massacre victims, Paul Revere, Ben Franklin’s parents and Peter Faneuil.

Under orders from King James II in 1686, land was seized, and the first Anglican Church was constructed. By 1749, the original wooden structure was too small for the congregation, and so the Georgian chapel was constructed around the original church.  

Adjacent to King’s Chapel is Boston’s first burying ground. Here you will find the graves of John Winthrop, Massachusetts’ first governor; William Dawes, Paul Revere’s compatriot who also made the ride to Lexington, and Mary Chilton, believed to be the first woman to step off the Mayflower.    

Embedded in the sidewalk in front of Old City Hall is the mosaic City Carpet, which commemorates the site of the first public school in the U.S., Boston Latin School (1635). Among the school’s alumni are Ben Franklin, John Hancock, Samuel Adams, Charles Bulfinch and Ralph Waldo Emerson. 

Richard Greenough’s statue of Ben Franklin, erected in 1856, prominently stands in front of Old City Hall. Look closely at Franklin’s face. The sculptor said that he found  the left side of the great man’s face philosophical and reflective and the right side funny and smiling.

The original building on this site was the home of Anne Hutchinson, who was banished from Massachusetts in 1638 for her unorthodox religious views. By the mid-1800s, the Old Corner Bookstore was a flourishing literary center. Here, Ticknor and Fields published works by Dickens, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Tennyson, Hawthorne, Emerson, Longfellow, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Julia Ward Howe among others. The Atlantic Monthly, a Boston institution, was originally published here as well. Today, the building continues as a place of commerce. 

Built in 1729, this is the second oldest church in Boston. The largest building in colonial Boston, Old South was used for public meetings when the angry crowd outgrew Faneuil Hall. Many of the crucial events that led up to the Revolution took place here. The most famous of the meetings was held on December 16, 1773, when over 5,000 gathered to protest the tax on tea.  

During the British occupation of Boston in 1775-1776, British troops desecrated this sanctuary of freedom by using it as a stable and riding school, while drinks were served from the balcony. The pulpit and pews were chopped into firewood and the library was used as kindling. 

On another note, Phillis Wheatley, the first female African American published poet, was a full member of the Meeting House. An original copy of her work is on permanent display here.  

Built in 1713, the Old State House is Boston’s oldest surviving public building. It was the center of political and commercial life, housing the merchant’s exchange (a precursor to today’s stock exchange) on the ground floor and the royally appointed government offices and the freely elected members of the Assembly of the Massachusetts Bay Colony on the upper floors.  

The site played a central role in the story of rebellion, from James Otis’ 1761 speech against the Writs of Assistance to the Boston Massacre in 1770 to the reading of the Declaration of Independence from the east balcony in July 1776.  

Adjacent to the Old State House, a ring of cobblestones commemorates the Boston Massacre. Five men were killed in this clash between Colonists and Redcoats. Among the slain men was Crispus Attucks, the first African American to die for the patriotic cause.  

Interestingly, John Adams and Josiah Quincy, loyal to justice as well as the patriotic cause, defended the British soldiers. All but two were acquitted. The guilty had their thumbs branded and were then set free. 

The building was a gift from wealthy merchant Peter Faneuil in 1742. Faneuil Hall served as a meeting place and an open-air market. It was here that Bostonians met to form their opposition to British authority. As a result of the impassioned speeches by such patriots as Samuel Adams and James Otis, the nickname Cradle of Liberty was earned, especially when citizens rallied against the Sugar Act, the Stamp Act, the Townsend Acts and the landing of British troops.  

Charles Bulfinch enlarged the building in 1806. After the Revolution, Bostonians continued to gather at Faneuil Hall for the anti-slavery speeches of William Lloyd Garrison, Wendell Phillips and Frederick Douglass. The women’s rights movement, early temperance rallies and nearly every war since 1812 have been debated within these walls. 

Built around 1680, the Paul Revere House is the oldest remaining structure in downtown Boston, and only official Freedom Trail site that is a home. It was from here that its famous occupant set out for the midnight ride. Revere was not only a patriot, but also an expert silversmith, copper manufacturer, part-time dentist, engraver and the father of 16 children. As many as eight children lived here with him, along with his mother, his first and (after 1773) his second wife.  

It was from this steeple that Sexton Robert Newman hung two lanterns on April 18, 1775, to signal the beginning of Paul Revere’s momentous ride. The action is widely regarded as the spark that ignited the American Revolution.  

Built in 1723, Old North is Boston’s oldest church building. See a wealth of historic works, including the first bells brought to the Colonies, its original 18th-century brass chandeliers and clock, and the 17th- century carved angels that were captured by a Colonial privateer. More than 1,000 individuals lay in rest in the underground crypt, including the Royal Governor’s second-in-command at Lexington and Concord.

Copp’s Hill was Boston’s largest colonial burying ground, dating from 1659. Some notables buried here include the Mather family, a very prominent New England ministerial family; Edmund Hartt, builder of the USS Constitution; Robert Newman, who hung the lanterns for Paul Revere’s ride, and Prince Hall, anti-slavery activist, Revolutionary soldier and founder of the African Grande Masonic Lodge. Copp’s Hill is also the final resting place of countless free African Americans.  

Because of its height and prominent location overlooking Boston Harbor, the British used the burying ground to aim their cannons on Charlestown during the Battle of Bunker Hill. Target practice was also conducted here. Be sure to take a look at the grave marker of Daniel Malcom, a member of the Sons of Liberty.

Launched in Boston in 1797, the USS Constitution is the oldest commissioned warship afloat in the world. Her nickname was earned during the War of 1812 when British cannonballs appeared to bounce off her impenetrable hull and the seamen cried out Huzzah! Her sides are made of iron! Today she is manned by an active duty U.S. Navy crew and docked in the Charlestown Navy Yard.

The Battle of Bunker Hill was one of the bloodiest battles of the American Revolution. "Don’t fire until you see the whites of their eyes!" became the legendary battle cry, according to lore, and immortalized the determination of the ill-equipped Colonists who stood facing the powerful British Army on June 17, 1775. Today the 221-foot granite obelisk commemorates the site of this first major battle.

Freedom Trail Guide for Boston Visitors

red line walking tour boston

Violet Smirnova / TripSavvy

A walk along the two-and-a-half-mile length of the Freedom Trail is one of the best ways to get acquainted with Boston and to efficiently visit and photograph the city's bounty of historic sites and landmarks. The Freedom Trail is marked with a painted or bricked red line that is easy for pedestrians to follow. Signs along the Freedom Trail identify each of the 16 stops.

Start at Boston Common

Boston Common, America's oldest public park, is the best starting point for your walking excursion. If you're in a real hurry and in pretty good physical shape, you can cover the length of the trail in as little as an hour, but that won't really allow you the time to stop and visit any of the attractions along the way. Your best bet is to allow three hours or more to walk the trail at a leisurely pace and see all of its Revolutionary-era landmarks.

Walking the Trail

The 2.5-mile trail is not a loop: It begins at Boston Common and ends in Charlestown at the Bunker Hill Monument, which commemorates the first major battle of America's Revolutionary War. Admission to sites along the trail is free with three exceptions: the Paul Revere House, the Old South Meeting House and the Old State House. The Paul Revere House tour is the most interesting of these three if you only have the time and/or funds to choose one. Revere—one of the best known patriots—is a fascinating, multidimensional character in American history.

Also along your Freedom Trail walk, you'll have the opportunity to see iconic landmarks including Faneuil Hall and the Old North Church , where Revere looked for a lantern signal—"One if by land, two if by sea"—before his legendary midnight ride.

Finding the Freedom Trail

The Freedom Trail Information Booth , (617-536-4100), is located on Boston Common at 139 Tremont Street. Here, you can pick up a map and brochure describing the trail sites. You can also purchase an audio tour . While you can theoretically pick up the trail at any point along the route, starting at Boston Common ensures you'll see all 16 historic sites along the one-way trail.

To reach the start of the trail and the Boston Common Visitor Information Center by subway , take the Red or Green Line to Park Street Station. Exit the station, and turn 180 degrees. The Center will be 100 yards in front of you. If you are arriving in Boston by car, the best parking spot is the Boston Common underground parking garage on Charles Street.

National Park Service rangers conduct guided tours of the trail and its sites. Some programs are offered daily year-round; others are seasonal. Check the current day's schedule online. The Freedom Trail Foundation , (617-357-8300), offers public tours , too, with guides in Colonial period costume.

Just follow the red line on the sidewalk

As you walk along the Freedom Trail (marked with a red line along the sidewalk), you pass many historically significant buildings and sites. I would strongly recommend making a stop to the information center in order to get a map, otherwise the trail can be a bit confusing.

Great experience that you need to do at least once especially if you live in the Boston area! Bring your friends from out of town when they come visit to see the city and give them some good history of our town!

Walking the freedom trail is really so fun since all the sites bring you through not only the history of America but gives you time to enjoy Boston at the same time. Its really easy to stop along the way and visit some great shops and restaurants.There are places to stop right on freedom trail to try Boston treats from Boston Creme Pie to Boston Scrod. Hmm Hmm good. Recomend during your walk you keep your eyes open for places beyond just the official freedom trails sites so you dont mis all the gems of Boston. You can do a guided trail with a offical guide if you want to learn more of the historic details. If you want to go on your own pace walking on own is also fun. If you find the trail too long to come back just jump in a cab or even take the historic old town trolley tour.

The freedom trail is a nice way to see the city because it gives you the complete tour of Boston. It is not just a historical walk. It brings you past modern shops and pubs but shows you the historical significance of the entire area. It is a VERY long walk but it is fun to follow the trails. There are posted signs and we did it on our own but there are guided walking tours that bring you along the entire trail.

Great way to discover Boston when you are on a budget Follow the trail to see all the history of Boston. Great way for families with children to teach them about a city.

One of the perfect intros to Boston (Duck Tour is the other) go the whole way to Bunker Hill and climb the monument for great views. If you want to go on Old Ironsides/ USS Constitution (US Navy's oldest commissioned vessel) make sure you check which days it's open.

Is the Freedom Trail Marked?

On your Freedom Trail Walking Tour , you’re going to have to keep your eyes peeled. For one thing, you’ll be walking through the heart of Downtown Boston, always be watchful of traffic, but also, you’re going to want to keep an eye on the sidewalk to make sure you’re following the Freedom Trail’s markings!

Like any other hiking trail, the Freedom Trail is marked. A red line, either painted or made with vertically-facing red bricks on the sidewalk, marks the path you should follow from site to site as you walk the Freedom Trail. This iconic red marking has been the symbol of the Freedom Trail for as long as it’s existed and makes for practical, eye-catching marking that visitors can easily follow. However, if you choose to use a group or self-guided walking tour, your trip through Downtown Boston will be even more accessible.

Freedom Trail - Old North Church Marking

Should you take a self-guided tour of Freedom Trail?

If you’re looking for an in-depth experience where you get to dive deep into Boston’s rich history, then this self-guided walking tour is your best bet. Many tour companies in Boston offer tours of the Freedom Trail. However, Action Tour Guide’s Freedom Trail Walking Tour of the Freedom Trail offers you both flexibility and an enriched experience as the audio tours are both fun and fascinating. You can skip sites or finish early while still soaking up all of the Freedom Trail’s most exciting stories. 

Is The Freedom Trail part of the National Parks? 

The Freedom Trail itself is not part of the National Parks system. However, many of the stops on the trail, like the Old Corner Bookstore, and of course, the USS Constitution, are designated National Historic Sites.

Boston's Morning Newsletter

Get ready for a 9-day closure of the middle of the red line.

  • Nik DeCosta-Klipa

A Red Line train arrives at JFK/UMass station. (Michael Dwyer/AP)

Editor's Note:  This is an excerpt from WBUR's daily morning newsletter, WBUR Today. If you like what you read and want it in your inbox,  sign up here . 

It’s Monday. While we buckle up for this week’s “ temperature roller coaster ,” here’s a look at what else is ahead:

Attention passengers:  The next MBTA closure is now approaching — and it’s hitting one of the busiest parts of the system. The T is shutting down the Red Line between Park Street and JFK/UMass this Thursday through next Friday (May 2-10). The closure will give crews full access to the downtown tunnel as part of  the T’s long slog to remove slow zones . But for riders, it means nine straight days of circuitous commutes and longer waits along the entire line.

  • Between Park and JFK/UMass: Free shuttles will run both ways along the closed stretch (but they’ll only make northbound stops at Downtown Crossing, since it’s so close to Park).
  • North of Park Street: Red Line trains will run only every 11-12 minutes between Alewife to Park Street on weekdays. Weekend waits are expected to be slightly longer.
  • South of JFK/UMass: Trains from JFK/UMass to Ashmont and Braintree will run every 13-15 minutes during the week. And starting at 8:30 p.m. each night this Thursday through next Thursday, train service between JFK/UMass and Ashmont will shut down, too. Shuttles will sub in for the rest of the night.
  • Other options: In addition to the shuttles, there are two other free ways to get around the closure. The commuter rail will be free between Braintree and South Station. Bluebikes is also  offering up to five free rides  to those without memberships — just enter the code “MBTAREDMAY” through their mobile app.
  • FYI: The Red Line closure was originally going to start Wednesday, but the T  pushed it back a day  to give workers a breather, after the current Blue Line closure in East Boston and Revere was extended two additional days, through Tuesday.

The latest:  Officials at MIT and Tufts are calling for an end to the pro-Palestinian encampments on their respective campuses. While both encampments have remained relatively small (around 15 tents), the universities say the demonstrations have broken campus rules and become a draw for non-student protesters. The push comes after police  cleared an encampment at Northeastern early Saturday morning , after university officials said it had been “infiltrated by professional organizers.”

  • Tufts leaders  said in a statement last night  that protesters have “scrawled obscene language” on campus buildings and made visitors on admissions tours “feel afraid and unwelcome.” They plan to reach out to protesters this morning to work on a plan to end the encampment “in the next few days” so Tufts can prepare the quad for commencement on May 19.
  • MIT President Sally Kornbluth  said in a taped message Saturday  the encampment on Kresge Lawn has diverted “hundreds of staff hours” away from other essential duties and “needs to end soon.”  (Kornbluth also said the university would not cut research ties to Israel, as protestors are demanding.)
  • Go deeper:  Here’s a look at how protests over the Israel-Hamas war have put a spotlight on college endowments  and how the multi-billion dollar funds are managed.

Meanwhile:  Emerson College says it will not bring disciplinary action against students who were arrested when  police cleared their pro-Palestinian encampment near Boston Common . Emerson President Jay Bernhardt also  said in a statement Sunday  the school is encouraging prosecutors not to pursue charges related to encampment violations against students who were arrested. (Emerson will also provide housing to any students who must remain in Boston for court appearances after the dorms close, according to Bernhardt.)

One way to avoid all these subway closures:  Take to the seas! The Lynn-to-Boston ferry resumes weekday service today. And for the first time starting this season, it will also run on weekends, as of May 25. The 40-minute trip costs $7 each way.  Click here for the schedule .

  • The T’s seasonal Winthrop-Quincy-Boston ferry route also resumes today, with  a few additional daily trips . See the full ferry route map and schedule on  the MBTA’s website .

P.S.— We try not to pick sides on political issues in this newsletter, but I’m fully endorsing  this campaign to put googly eyes on some MBTA trains . Supporters will march from Boston Common to the MBTA’s downtown offices today at lunchtime to make their case.

The latest breaking updates, delivered straight to your email inbox.

Day 1 of a planned shutdown on part of the MBTA's Red Line was complicated when a train became disabled during the morning commute.

"This is a nightmare. Honestly, this is a nightmare," said Leslie MacPherson, a longtime Red Line rider.

"I really believe the Red Line is becoming the Big Dig," another rider said.

Plans called for the Red Line to suspend service between Park Street and JFK/UMass stations to accommodate the Track Improvement Program work .

Also Thursday morning, a train became disabled at JFK/UMass. One passenger said he had to exit a train in North Quincy to board a bus to that station, then switch buses to continue on his way.

The Red Line will be shut down in this section from Thursday to May 10. In addition, from Thursday to May 9, evening Red Line trains will not operate between Park Street and Ashmont stations from approximately 8:30 p.m. through the end of service every day, the MBTA said.

Shuttle buses will instead operate to accommodate riders.

The MBTA also said weekend Red Line service will be replaced with free and accessible shuttle buses between JFK/UMass and North Quincy on May 11 and May 12. This shutdown is to accomplish work on the Dorchester Avenue Bridge Replacement Project and the Track Improvement Program, the MBTA said.

Free and accessible shuttle buses will make all stops between stations. There will be free fares at Park Street and JFK/UMass stations with the fare gates open. The Commuter Rail will be fare-free between Braintree, Quincy Center, JFK/UMass and South Station. Regular fares should be purchased beyond Braintree.
