Carpenters' Hall

This time I came to check in and visit this historic conference hall next to the Independence Palace. I passed by and saw a small door, but I didn’t associate it with the attraction. This time, when I searched for the attraction, I found that this two-story brick building in the door was originally an important part of the early history of the United States. The conference hall, the building was built from 1770 to 1773, the first continental conference in 1774, there was no excessive furnishings inside, no explanation, mainly some pictures of the display of cultural relics, the model restored the style of the building.

The Carpenter Hall on Chestnut Street in the Old Town is a two-story brick building and an important conference hall in early history. Compared with other attractions in the scenic area, the popularity here has weakened a lot. If it is not for the Raiders in advance, it is difficult to imagine that there is a conference hall hidden in this small building.

This two-story single-family building is also a famous landscape of the door, with a century of history, the earliest time here is also a conference organ, there are many other uses used, the internal space is not large.

Carpenter Hall was the site of the first continental conference in North America. The house was named after the company of the same name, because the ownership of the house was the company. On September 5, 1774, the colonies of North America gathered here for a meeting, and held until October, writing to the King, demanding that the colony be considered as a whole, and making a claim, if not met, then the following year. So the house is small, but it is important in American history. Every important day, such as the anniversary of the British occupation of Philadelphia, antique events are held, some playing the British army, some playing the civilian, some playing the militia, restore the events of the time to commemorate.

Few people see the carpenter house, even in the area. This building was once an arsenal. It was also used by the First Congress and was a hospital. The ground is beautiful. The building itself is small and takes only a few minutes to get through. You are here, so absorb as much history as you can.

Carpenter Hall is a famous landmark building in Philadelphia, which is the place I always yearned for, so I rushed here for the first time after arriving at the hotel and putting my luggage away.
