![]() Bunker Hill Monument
(Sights & Activities - Historic Sites)
Monument SqCharlestown MA 02129 617-242-5601
Description:
CHARLESTOWN. [Closed until April 2, 2007] This 221-foot granite obelisk remembers the Battle of Bunker Hill. Rangers provide details about the history of the crucial battle, and seasonal musket-firings add a note of authenticity. Make the 294-step climb to the top of the monument for breathtaking views of Boston. Two little-known facts: the Battle of Bunker Hill was actually fought on Breed's Hill, and the Bunker Hill Monument is actually located atop Breed's Hill. The true Bunker Hill is actually a quarter-mile from the monument.
Hours:
Daily 9am-5pm
