About the Business
Welcome to Bunker Hill Lodge, a historic gem nestled at 1 Monument Square in the heart of Boston, Massachusetts. Located on the iconic Bunker Hill Monument Grounds, our lodge offers visitors a unique glimpse into the past, with its stunning Greek Revival architecture reminiscent of a classical temple. Constructed in 1902, this enduring structure stands as a testament to the rich history and architectural elegance that defines our nation's early years.
As you explore Breed's Hill in Charlestown, you'll encounter two remarkable structures that echo ancient civilizations: the Egyptian-inspired Bunker Hill Monument and our very own Bunker Hill Lodge, designed in the style of a Greek temple. The lodge, with its solid masonry and graceful Grecian columns, provides an inviting gateway to the historical significance of this site.
Operated by the dedicated staff of the National Parks of Boston, part of the National Park Service, Bunker Hill Lodge serves as both a visitor center and a historical landmark. It offers insights into the Battle of Bunker Hill and the enduring legacy of the Provincial militia. Step inside to experience the grandeur of the rotunda lobby, complete with a dome and skylight, and imagine the early 20th-century tourists who once lounged in the elegantly appointed rooms.
The Bunker Hill Monument, completed in 1843, was the first large obelisk built in the United States, and together with the lodge, it continues to attract visitors from around the world. Whether you're here to climb the monument's 294 steps for a breathtaking 360-degree view of Boston or to delve into the stories of the past, Bunker Hill Lodge provides an enriching and memorable experience.
