After more than two hundred years, Paul Revere remains one of Boston’s
most legendary citizens. His “midnight ride” exclamations
that “the British are coming!” warned Boston citizens
of the hostile British troops’ advancement towards the city.
Today, his former home still stands on 19 North Square, and attracts
visitors who are eager to discover the every day life of a man who
displayed such extraordinary bravery.
While touring through the house, you will find it hard to believe
that at least nine children and two adults occupied the quarters
at any given time. Keep in mind that a third floor existed during
the time that the Revere family inhabited the house. While you are
free to walk around, proceed responsibly and cautiously as a few
original Revere belongings are preciously preserved in the home.
More than just a dedication to an American hero, the Paul Revere
house is a real life introduction to living in Revolutionary Boston.
