EnglishWhat Is the Paul Revere House Website?
Updated
paulreverehouse.org is the official website of the Paul Revere House, the historic home and museum operated by the Paul Revere Memorial Association in Boston. The site is a practical resource for planning a visit and a deeper archive for anyone researching Paul Revere, his family, and colonial Boston. Use it if you want current hours, ticket and group-visit details, or free educational material; it is not a ticketing platform where you can reserve standard admission in advance.
Visiting information
The site publishes the museum's current operating hours and admission process:
- Hours: Open daily from 10:00 AM to 5:15 PM (as listed on the homepage).
- Groups: Advanced reservations are required.
- Individual visitors: Purchase tickets for self-guided tours at the admissions booth when you arrive.
Because hours and procedures can change seasonally, check the homepage before you go rather than relying on a saved copy.
What the site offers beyond visit logistics
Public programs and lectures
The site promotes the 2026 Lowell Lecture Series, including:
- October 5 – Restoring the Plants, Restoring the Practice with Paula Peters, 6:30–7:45 PM, exploring Indigenous knowledge, native materials such as bulrush and wampum, and ecological restoration. This lecture is free to the public and can be watched online or in person at Smith Commons (5th floor), Sargent Hall, Suffolk University, 120 Tremont Street.
- October 26 – Piece by Piece: Crazy Quilting and Making Memory in 19th-Century Massachusetts with Tenesha Carter Johnson.
Poetry and the Revere legacy
The site notes that Paul Revere was made famous by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poem Paul Revere's Ride, and that Inaugural Massachusetts Poet Laureate Regie Gibson explored his life in a new poem, Dear Paul Revere or Forge, Shape, Shine!, presented as part of a November 13, 2025 concert program. A recording and transcript are available on the site.
