This small but mighty museum was a great stop on our Boston visit. We were welcomed immediately and our questions were answered. The set up and displays are great. Things to look at, touch, play with, and listen to. Even as adults we enjoyed the childrens room. We were fortunate to have the place to ourselves. Great for all ages. Our college age kids enjoyed too. Grounds were inaccessible in March but Im sure they are beautiful in summer.
Very good printed information and nice highlight talk before entering by Antoine. Enjoyed the local history.
My favorite museum. If you love American history, definitely come visit it.
Weird alarms throughout the house. You need to ring the bell to have someone explain how the alarms work before taking the self guilded tour.
A Historic house museum unlike any other. Become immersed in the roots of the American Revolution, in the social issues around slavery in the 1800s and more. Interactive exhibits and games for children. Brings history to life.
Beautiful house museum with excellent educational exhibits. The grounds feature colonial style flower and vegetable gardens.
Was there slavery in New England? I did not know the answer to this until I visited this museum.Beautifully landscaped exterior with lots of native crops.
Great place to explore Newton
Boring
Great historical field trip
A hidden gem!
