From outraged protests over the Boston Massacre, to
the night Samuel Adams gave the secret signal to throw 342 chests of tea into
Boston Harbor, colonists came to Old South Meeting House to protest British
rule. Now, your group can experience firsthand the inspiring history of this
museum and National Historic Landmark.
The following programs are available for groups of
ten (10) or more. We welcome all groups: college groups, elder groups, bus tours
and more. Our tours offer an introduction to the remarkable history of the
Meeting House as well as an opportunity to view the exhibit Voices of
Protest or enjoy our audio program If These Walls Could Talk… at
your own pace. Advanced registration is required.
