Historical landmark
Freedom Trail
Freedom Trl, Boston, MA 02108, USA
Painted-red walking route linking sixteen Revolutionary-era landmarks through the old city center.
This stop on Boston's Freedom Trail centers on the Old State House, where a 1770 clash between a Redcoat patrol and an angry crowd left five Bostonians dead, among them dockworker Crispus Attucks. You'll hear how Paul Revere's engraving turned the killings into a rallying cry, and about the one lawyer in town willing to defend the soldiers at trial that fall. It traces the courtroom argument over what really happened at this corner, and how a newspaperman later mapped the red line connecting it to Bunker Hill.
