SundayWE ARE ON THE FREEDOM TRAIL
The museum sits directly on Boston’s Freedom Trail. In fact, we share the sidewalk with it. You’ll find us on the stretch of Prince Street where it meets Hanover Street, just footsteps from the Paul Revere House, St. Leonard Church, and the Peace Garden.

Seniors, military and students (with ID): $8
Youth 13 to 18: $5

Tickets are sold at the front desk when you arrive. Become a member and every visit is free.
PARKING
Please plan ahead: this section of Prince Street has no on-street parking on either side. We strongly encourage visitors to use public transit or one of these nearby paid garages:
• Parcel 7 Garage (136 Blackstone St), $3 for three hours with museum validation
• Haymarket Center Garage (75 Sudbury St)
ACCESSIBILITY
The museum is one open gallery on a single level on Prince Street. The front entrance has both steps and a ramp, so wheelchairs, walkers and strollers can come straight in.
Inside, the floor is flat and every exhibit is on the same level. Seating is available if you need to rest, the oral history videos are captioned, and service animals are welcome. Please note that our restroom is not wheelchair accessible.
The gallery is compact, about 850 square feet, so on busy afternoons our front desk staff may suggest a spot to park your stroller. Staff are at the desk during all open hours and happy to help.
Plan 45 to 90 minutes for your visit.
