good for those history mindeds. nor much to see. Go the weekend before Patriots day and see the same thing others see at 5am, and you won't need a step ladder to watch it. More

As a long term Lexington resident I have enjoyed this major event for the last 40 years. It is without a doubt one of the most enjoyable historical reenactment battle to take in. This years 2012 weekend April 14th-16th is one to take the family to. There is much to take in throughout the entire weekend from Lexington to Concord... More

It's beautiful around this very historic area April-October, especially in May when all the young leaves come out. Around the minuteman statue, there are also many small historic landmarks. Often there are volunteer guides in costumes who tell the story. More

Great to stop and see this historic site. Before you start wandering around, go across the street to the visitors center. They will load you up with information and maps to enrich your experience even more. Well preserved area, great to see history in real life. More

Possible to imagine what it would be like to have been in Lexington at the time of the Revolution. More

Lots of grass and trees and a historic site, to boot. Lexington is an upscale suburb, so they maintain this jewel well and it is popular with tourists, especially during Patriot's Day in mid-April. Also visit bridge in Concord and the Minuteman National Park. More
