Museum of the American Revolution

The Museum of the American Revolution, which opened in the heart of historic Philadelphia in 2017, presents a rich collection of Revolutionary-era weapons, personal items, letters, diaries and works of art. Immersive environments, theater experiences and recreated historical moments bring to life the events, people and ideals of America’s founding. It is located just steps away from key related historic sites including Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States were adopted by the Founding Fathers; Carpenters’ Hall, the meeting place of the First Continental Congress; and Franklin Court, the home of Benjamin Franklin.
