Welcome to the inaugural post of the Bostonian Society’s blog, On King Street. Since 1881, the Society has maintained and
preserved the Old State House, the oldest public building surviving from
British colonial America, one of the two most historically significant sites
from our nation’s founding era, and one of the historic sites on Boston’s
Freedom Trail. The Society has used the
restored interiors of the building to house a museum dedicated to Boston’s
revolutionary history, and has amassed a large museum, library, and archival
collection over the years.
