Carpenter's Historic Hall

Not much to this building but extremely historic. Everyone should visit here at least once. The guide I talked to was fantastic.

A great historic building that has been well preserved. This is where the First Continental Congress would meet in 1774. There are other really neat historical buildings around it as well!

Great place to stop and right across Ben Franklin Miseum.

A great historic building to visit in the Old City neighborhood. It is a well preserved building that has been continually owned by the Carpenter's Company since it was built in the 1770's. This is where the First Continental Congress was held in 1774. It is free admission to the public and very close to other historically significant buildings in Philadelphia that you would be interested in attending.

This is one of the hidden gems as far as Philly and American history is concerned. This building and area was used for so much since the inception of the country, and was even instrumental in the founding of the nation. The inside is extremely informative and has plaques, a scale model of the building, and some historic pieces on display. If you're interested in American history this is a building you can't miss.
