    This area is a historic neighborhood with many important landmarks. It is best to visit with a guide who can show you around and explain the significance of each site. The Paul Revere Statue greets visitors at the entrance to the park, and the Old North Church is a short walk away. Both are worth seeing, and the area is a pleasant place to stroll around, especially in the summer or fall.

    This area has a lot of history so make sure you are accompanied by a guide. Not much point trying to navigate the area yourself as you will probably miss quite a few important landmarks and interesting stories. Well maintained area and nice walk up and down the slopes during summer or fall.

    Pretty cool dude, I remember back in the day when me and Paul would ride our horses together down the street. The ladies would whistle at us as we passed and we would wink at them to flirt with them. Dang that was a good time. Wish that he could talk to me and tell me how he is doing. Miss u bro

    The Paul Revere Park and statue are ideally located. You can see the Old North Church on one side and the prominent building on the other. The statue requires some walking from Paul Reveres house. The park is very relaxing and you can also enjoy the waterfall. If you are on the North End you should stop by and see this history.

    This statue is off of Hanover St., in North Boston, and part of the freedom trail. Paul Revere is a staple in American history, and this statue is located among other historical landmarks in Boston. Great American history!

    Located behind the Old Nirth Church in Boston, this statue begins to trace Paul Revere's ride to America's freedom! From here you can trace his route by markers in the pavement as he spread the news that the British were coming!

    Beautiful place to visit, very interesting I had fun relaxing and looking at people passing, the water fountain wasn’t on. Cool place to enjoy the view of the great Paul Revere.

    It is a great spot to take pictures with an amazing view. The statue is located in a very clean area. There was not people around (thought I visited on Sunday afternoon) so it was incredible to take good pictures with a great view. It was interesting to learn more about Paul Revere thanks to the information we have around this place.

    🐴Beautiful Statue - Beautifully Framed🐴 The bronze Paul Revere Statue, located at the Paul Revere Mall, depicts the renowned patriot riding his faithful steed. It was modeled in 1885 but not cast and unveiled until 1940. The plaque on the base reads: "Erected by the trustees from the income of a generous fund provided in his [George Robert White] will for creating works of public utility and beauty." Although the statue is beautiful as a stand-alone, it's the framing surrounding it which elevates the piece to a must-see. The treeline on either side creates a natural vacuum of blue space behind the statue's silhouette. This, coupled with the rearing of the Old North Church's steeple in the background, evokes a dramatic and captivating portrayal for eyes and camera lenses alike.

    This tiny slice of Heaven is found in the shadow of the North Church. If I lived in Boston I would want this as my back yard! Delightful place to relax and respect all that it stands for…

    Can't wait until the fountain work is completed and the fencing is removed on the Paul Revere Mall...really it is a park with the statue at one end and the Old North Church at the other end...with the statue and sitting area in the center! A short walk from the Paul Revere House...a great stroll through the North End on a beautiful day...so much history and beauty surround you in this Park & neighborhood!

  • 4/5 Kyley S. 4 months ago on Google • 50 reviews
    Neat place in history…. Would recommend going to this area if you haven’t been. Not a bad walk, a little dirty in corners from vagrants. But not many out there the day we went.

    How do I rate a statue. It looks like it would take someone a lifetime to make that thing and I couldn't do it. What's left to cover here?

  • 5/5 Dejan B. 1 year ago on Google
    This equestrian statue of the American Revolution hero is situated in a beautiful park alley that spreads between the St. Stephen's Church and the historic Old North Church. It's a glorious tribute to this important figure, a nice photo op and an opportunity to rest beneath the trees when walking the Freedom Trail.

    When in Little Italy aka North End, you must see the Paul Revere statue. It is accessible by all. It is set in a beautiful walkway and there are many great places to wine, dine, and shop near by.

  • 5/5 Emerald's E. 1 year ago on Google
    Went during morning hours on a Thursday and practically no one was there. I did the Freedom Trail starting from Boston Commons, not that bad of a walk but the Paul Revere Statue was were I wanted to end up. The Old North Church is in the back- "one if by land, two if by sea". I'm from California and only had a few hours before I had work and fly back home. It was worth seeing as history is always intriguing :)

  • 5/5 Millie O. 1 year ago on Google
    If you love history or are intrigued by it and want to know more, then I highly recommend walking around Boston and going to the Old North Church as well as the Paul Revere Statute.

  • 3/5 Nico Samneil S. 1 year ago on Google
    A good place to take a pic. Nothing much. Place to give tribute to the known revolutionary hero.

    Now here's a little story I've got to tell About three bad brothers you know so well It started way back in history With Adrock, MCA and me, Mike D I had a little horse named Paul Revere Just me and my horsy and a quart of beer Riding across the land, kicking up sand Sheriff's posse's on my tail 'cause I'm in demand One lonely Beastie I be All by myself without nobody The sun is beating down on my baseball hat The air is gettin' hot the beer is getting flat Lookin' for a girl I ran into a guy His name is MCA, I said, "Howdy" he said, "Hi" He told a little story that sounded well rehearsed Four days on the run and that he's dying of thirst The brew was in my hand and he was on my tip His voice was hoarse, his throat was dry, and he asked me for a sip He said, "Can I get some?" I said, you can't get none Had a chance to run He pulled out his shotgun Quick on the draw, I thought I'd be dead He put the gun to my head and this is what he said "Now my name is MCA, I've got a license to kill I think you know what time it is, it's time to get ill Now what do we have here, an outlaw and his beer I run this land, you understand, I've made myself clear" We stepped into the wind, he had a gun, I had a grin You think this story's over but it's ready to begin "Now I got the gun, you got the brew You got two choices of what you can do It's not a tough decision as you can see I can blow you away or you can ride with me" I said, I'll ride with you if can get me to the border The sheriff's after me for what I did to his daughter I did it like this, I did it like that I did it with a wiffleball bat So I'm on the run, the cop's got my gun And right about now it's time to have some fun The King Adrock that is my name And I know the fly spot where they got the champagne" We rode for six hours then we hit the spot The beat was a bumping and the girlies was hot This dude was staring like he knows who we are We took the empty spot next to him at the bar MCA said "Y-y-yo, you know this kid?" I said, I didn't, but I know he did The kid said "Get ready 'cause this ain't funny My name's Mike D and I'm about to get money" Pulled out the jammy, aimed it at the sky He yelled "Stick 'em up" and let two fly Hands went up and people hit the floor He wasted two kids that ran for the door "I'm Mike D and I get respect Your cash and your jewelry is what I expect" MCA was with it and he's my ace So I grabbed the piano player and I punched him in the face The piano player's out, the music stopped His boy had beef and he got dropped Mike D grabbed the money, MCA Snatched the gold I grabbed two girlies and a beer that's cold

    The Paul Revere Statute could be found in the P.R. Mall (walkway/strip) on the Freedom Trail and just behind the Old North Church, in Boston's North End. Nicely maintained for those who appreciate history.

    Cute little square, located near a church in a neighborhood. We visited in the Fall so there were lots of leaves all over which is so pretty. There's also a playground nearby to let the kids have a break from the historical adventure for the day!

    (Translated by Google) A monument dedicated to the American patriot who informed the American army that the British were coming. The square where the statue is located offers beautiful images with the old north church. (Original) Ένα μνημείο αφιερωμένο στον αμερικανό πατριώτη που ενημέρωσε τον αμερικανικό στρατό ότι έρχονται οι άγγλοι. Η πλατεία όπου το άγαλμα βρίσκεται προσφέρει ωραίες εικόνες με την old north εκκλησία.

  • 5/5 Yoann L. 4 years ago on Google
    Think of it as a bench park with a statue at its center. Representing a hero in its own right, the American Revolution would not have had this ending had it not been for Revere. The area surrounding this comfort zone has a bakery, a church and some government buildings.

  • 5/5 A. K. 4 years ago on Google
    Cool to say you've been there. Clean area, seems like a fun area.

    The statue is a part of the Freedom Trail tour, you cannot miss it and it offers a nice resting point with benches if you chose to stop by Mike's Bakery on the way for some treats.
