Revolutionary War Sites in Cambridge
This hunt highlights Cambridge’s rich history and ties to the revolution. The Revolutionary War’s origins in Massachusetts are well-known to anyone who has studied U.S. history. Events like the Boston Massacre, the Boston Tea Party, and the Battle of Lexington and Concord are etched into the national narrative. However, Cambridge played a crucial role in the early days of the Revolution, serving as a strategic center for colonial resistance and military planning—and its historic sites remain preserved to this day. We hope you enjoy exploring these sites and have a little bit of fun along the way!
