 Resting place of patriots |
Park & Tremont Streets Boston, MA 02108 United States +1 617 635 7389 http://www.cityofboston.gov/fr... |
This historic cemetery, established in 1660, is the final resting place of many notable figures of the American Revolution. Besides famous patriots such as Samuel Adams and Paul Revere, the graves of the Boston Massacre victims (and Elizabeth "Mother" Goose herself) are among the more renowned in the graveyard. Located on the Freedom Trail across from the Park Street Church, this cemetery is a piece of Boston's varied history, and worth a visit. Wander the haphazard rows and see if you can recognize some of the thousands of names—you may be surprised by what you find. Review © 2007, Wcities |
