Beautiful Building in classical style, interesting story of the making of the US
It’s was great feel to view Federal Hall, American Democracy was started here. I like that federal hall building it is great historical architecture.
Must visit place in Lower Manhattan.
The Federal Hall is the incubator of the American republic. It is the first home of all three branches of the federal government and the site where George Washington took the oath of office as president of the United States. This incubator helped our democracy grow to maturity.
The actual Bible that George Washington was sworn in as first President of the United States was there and that made it worth while. There was a lot of early US history displays. There was an Alexander Hamilton exhibit but it was all reading. It's free and has rest rooms.
Great photo-op next to the Statue of Washington. Have a local explain the nuances of his pose.
This is an important part of American history. While a lot of tourists come here don’t get too distracted with all that. Read all the information or get a tour guide to learn about the foundation of the United States. That being said, such an important place should be better maintained. I felt embarrassed that this is how we treat our landmark for the world to see.
It's a museum, kinda plain tho.
Interesting exhibits, including painting commemorating John Muir. (Likely different when you visit.) Good overview movie.
Wouldn't know how great it is. Its closed
Amazing hidden treasure of Wall St
Monumental building that's well preserved
Should definitely be on your visit list when you go to New York. Beautiful building with an interesting exhibition about Alexander Hamilton. Admission is free, and there are knowledgeable park rangers to answer questions.
This was a great surprise. I didn't know it existed but loved it. To stand on the steps was an honor.
The first historical, political, democratic and republic site in the United States
Amazing historical gem. So much information, great exhibits and helpful rangers. Such a magical feeling to stand in a place with so much history.
Great place to learn US history. It was worth taking some time from our trip in Manhattan and dedicated to the Federal Hall. A must go place to learn about the creation of the state and the best thing about it is it's FREE and worth visiting!!!!
Free to entre. Worth a quick visit
There is not a ton to see at this site, but they usually have the Washington Bible which is an incredible artifact and makes the trip well worth it. The Washington Bible is the same Bible that George Washington used when he took the oath of office when he became the first President of the United States. Call ahead to make sure it'll be there! Sometimes it gets loaned out to other institutions. Also, the structure itself is worth seeing. Gorgeous building.
You don't need to pay to go visit this place, which is why I love it so much.
We had lunch here as my friend who live in NYC recommended as its the tavern from George Washington time to present. We had to get historical vibe. I had fish and ship was good.
The day I went I couldn't understand why this place was so empty... It's so rich with history, it has amazing architecture, small interesting exhibits and it's free! I highly recommend stepping in off the busy streets of people taking photos of the New York Stock exchange to see this amazing building!
The Bible that was used by Washington was awesome.
Very interesting. The actual Bible George Washington was sworn in with was on display. Incredible American history.
Only for sightseeing... Nothing else
Nice, indoor free public national park. It was a little unclear where to start with the exhibits, but we caught on. Downstairs they seemed to have been doing some kind of maintenance. Not very crowded, which was nice.
Great history to learn. Free to walk around and free wifi
Practically free piece of history that is a good time killer for about 30 minutes or so. Piece of early American history
We didn't go inside, but it's a fun area. Not far from the main park. It's disappointing that you can't go inside of the NY Stock Exchange anymore, that's across the street.
It was my first time in Federal Hall. I was happy to had a free tour at 10am with the guide.
Nice to see, shame it's not the original building
Didn't go inside but good to see the statue at the front
High prices. Shoprote much more reasonable.
It is federal so it is fantastic.
One of the most important places all around the world. I love you the US.
Great place to visit history. They have two really good exhibits right now. One on Alexander Hamilton and one on Art work done by the US Coast Guard (Puddle Pirates)Sorry guys it's that inter service ribbing.
It was very informative. A nice exhibition.
Our nation's first capital
Very cool to see !!
First time I know there are such a place!
Great treasure. Free and full of History
Nothing was open and could only take pics outside.
Great historical site with an informative visitor center inside
great American history place
If you haven't stopped in here yet, you need to. This beautiful building contains a treasure of great history in the heart of Manhattan. The tour guides are impressive. And it's free!
If you're passing by when looking at wall street it's definitely wort a short visit! It's free and a beautiful building . A lot of information on the creation of the state . Free toilets !
Very informative and well designed exhibits
Great but would be better if guided tour on premise is available
Beautiful history of lower Manhattan
Iconic historical building
learning experience
A historical place. Take a tour! Use the stamps!
What a gem! Free and very interesting
Nice architecture to take some pictures.
Great place to visit. American history at it's finest. George Washington was sworn in a president here.
Awesome place
History is always good
It is really worth to visit this place, since it is inside the Wall Street. Don’t stop in the middle of the road to take picture come to the side of the road to take pictures so that pedestrians can keep walking down.
Stumbled upon Federal Hall when we went to see the NY Stock Exchange. As a history enthusiast, I was so excited to find this. There were tons of tourists in the area taking pictures with the statue of Washington, but inside was very empty and quiet. I had no idea this was where Washington was inaugurated. I love stumbling upon historical places. I wish the National Park Service was fully funded to upkeep this building as it should be, but the small offerings they had were very nice! I would recommend if you're in the area.
Free entrance June 25. Glad to know American history
AAA+ would beat Solidus and have an existential crisis again
Very important place of American history and a place with easy access. Must visit. Opp is New York stock exchange!!
There are two places in this building you can stamp your National Park Passport: the visitor center (with exhibition) and the little gift shop. Friendly and knowledgeable rangers you can ask info about the national park service in New York area. You can also get the stamp of the new Stonewall NM here.
This was a really interesting place to visit. A calm oasis in the centre of the financial district open to exploration. There are interpretive displays and docents wandering the halls to ask questions. Quite interesting architecture.
Very GOOD memorial .The memorial is sharing lot of information about the American history. The crowd is so big all the days .we visited the place during memorial day time.Very good tourist place in Washington dc.
Although the original structure was torn down long ago the current building serves as a monument to the swearing in of George Washington and the original seat of the Federal government before it was moved to Philadelphia, and then Washington DC. Of particular interest is the original stone where Washington stood to take the oath is inside the building while his statue outside the building marks the spot. The rest of the facility describes the History of the building as the main customs house for NY. The Junior Ranger program here is pretty good and easy for kids to do on their own in a pretty fast amount of time compared to others.
Awesome history
They have really nice exhibits. Also, I saw Alexander Hamilton's first books in here such as Production Reports. I met some extra ordinary enlightened people in here. It felt nice that see true American Intellectual in museums.
An interesting look into the early history of the US
Awesome tours and awesome place
Very Nice
My daughters and I had a fabulous time. Got there a little late so we didn't have time to see everything, but that just means we have to go back! Definitely take advantage of the Jr. Ranger program if you are visiting with kiddos!
Stumbled upon Federal Hall while killing time in the area. Hadn’t ever been in, or knew what it was. There are some interesting exhibits, and worth popping into at least once if you’re in the Wall Street area. Will definitely check back to see what kind of events or lectures they have in the future.
Historical place in New York. Close to the trinity's church and the famous bull. Free entrance. A quick visit (15-20 min) should be enough.
This was such a surprise for us! Just happened to be walking by and decided to pop in and have a look. Very nice! I love history and anything to do with our guy George! Nice steps to sit a spell and rest a bit too!
Loved Federal Hall, NY Stock Exchange and Wall Street Area. So much history. Certainly worth a visit.
Nice history. Could be better with exhibits.
Cool that GW was inaugurated there, and a beautiful building on Wall Street. Fun, but not all that special otherwise.
I visited NYC with friends and this was only about a block away from Trinity Church. I had no idea this is where President George Washington was sworn in and inaugurated. This is a great piece of American history and a must see if you are anywhere near the World Trade Center area. This is the site of the First US Congress and where George Washington was sworn in as the first US President. The building is post those events but houses a small Museum and is a NPS concern, worth a quick look when in Wall Street.
Very cool yet underwhelming
A great slice of American history in a wonderful city block.
In this place lived George Washington the first president of EEUU. You can realized how his life went. This place is similar to Museum. I highly recommend to visit.
Great piece of history but not that much to see.
Great place for tourist
Unique, me and my husband love this places
The history. The building. The city. The gift shop lady was helpful and kind. Loved it !!!
Historic place next to stock exchange.. A good place to sit n relax n feel Wall Street
Great for a photo. Must see. Patriotic
Cool historic spot!
It is great place. A lot of history and beautiful building. Must see.
See the bible that George Washington was sworn in on! Incredible experience!!!
This historical building is in lower Manhattan, right across the street from The New York Stock Exchange. I am a fan of Wall Street so this visit was worth it for me!
Wish it had more to see
Very interesting insight into American history. Just check the times before going to ensure you can catch a tour
Visited while on a walking tour of Wall Street. Such a cool place. Disappointed to learn that it is a different building than the original in front of which Washington took the oath, but still a very cool place. Absolutely consider visiting while on a guided tour! You'll learn so much more, especially about the impacts of 9/11 on the structure.
Too often overlooked. This is an important building historically
Great historical location! Worth the visit!
It's surprising that more is not made of this building and the importance of the contents ie the bible used to swear in George Washington as president. It's free and worth a visit.
Where it all began. The first capital of the United States and a destination, at least the front steps are. Go inside and take a tour, the rangers are quite knowledgeable and I have never seen huge crowds in the building. A gem hidden in plain sight.
Nice place to visit
NOW EXHIBITING A WONDERFUL COLLECTION OF PAINTINGS ABOUT COAST GUARD. 40 PAINTINGS. MANY ARE DRAMATIC & POWERFUL. THEY ARE ON 2ND FLOOR. HARD TO FIND BUT WORTH IT. CLOSES 9/19/2019 DO U LIKE ALEXANDER HAMILTON? CHECK OUT 2ND FLOOR EXHIBIT ALL ABOUT HIS LIFE AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS. Small but worthwhile historical stop. Washington was inaugurated here. The Bill of Rights was written here. THIS PLACE IS FREE.
Was a great experience for me.
Even though the National Park service has become far too politically correct, I really enjoyed being able to see where the American government began
I work in the area and recently visited. Just a great treasure located in the historic district of downtown Manhattan. Everyone should visit and learn our history
Nice historical place.
If you love history about Alexander Hamilton, this is a place you need to visit. It's also on the national historic site registry so you can get a cancellation for your national park passport.
George Washington was inaugurated here. As NYC was the country’s 1st Capital.
What a great piece of history!
Good place to enjoy
You can see the orignial bible on which most presidents took their oath all tbe way from George Washington. They close early at least in winter. Free entrance.
A very interesting part of history. Loved seeing the slab of stone where Washington stood while taking the oath of office
My children and I was introduced to the Jr ranger program recently and one of the ranger gave us a map of NY Jr ranger spots. Federal Hall is one of the 10 spots that the children can learn about NY History, US History and Geography. What a fabulous time and program. All the rangers we have encountered are well knowledge. We visited today on July 4th, Independence day and there were special program all day long. 5 stars. A must go place that is full with a wealh of information that should not be miss. The best part of this is that it is FREE!
Nice and peaceful place to visit. highly recommend
Incredible place to walk through!
This is such an under rated place. One must visit this when they go to New York
Hmmm.. its ok
Nice but uder construction
Interesting history. Big statue of George Washington and lots of tourists.
Big part of our national history
Nice but too many smokers on the steps.
Stumbled upon Federal Hall when we went to see the NY Stock Exchange. As a history enthusiast, I was so excited to find this. There were tons of tourists in the area taking pictures with the statue of Washington, but inside was very empty and quiet. I had no idea this was where Washington was inaugurated. I love stumbling upon historical places. I wish the National Park Service was fully funded to upkeep this building as it should be, but the small offerings they had were very nice! I would recommend if you're in the area.
Wonderful history behind the place, super touristy though
Loved it ❤️
This place is a must see in NYC. Good location for pictures where many movies were filmed and famous scenes were made. Please do go to the sub stresses, where you can go and eat something and go to the bathroom somewhere (I remember seeing one available, but they always change). You’re definitely gonna find a lot of Starbucks around almost most of the corners there (where usually Starbucks picks their places), however, they don’t have bathrooms. You could look for them at hotels near there or small restaurants that they don’t look as nice as global chains, but very nice and hospitable staff there. Try to walk as much as possible in this area because it has a LOT to see. Drawback, many tricky beggars there. To be more specific, you might find a beautiful lady coming to you with some flyers or broachers and telling a sad long story about children or homeless or animals and that they raise money and donations for them (all my sympathy goes for any living or even dead soul in the world), but NOT those beggars who’re disguised in nice clothes, make up and perfumes, also, you could find men doing the same. Enjoy your time there. Get pictures of the exchange market and the little girl’s statue in front of it.
This is a really cool museum to visit and spend a bit at.
The Alexander Hamilton exhibit was simple, but excellent
Fantastic place. Must visit!
Nice place for pics.
Americans that appreciate history should visit Federal Hall. I was surprised by how many people were outside and not visiting the inside of this free to visit building of national significance. George Washington was inaugurated here. It was a sub treasury for many years. It is worth visiting.
Not the most eventful place to go, it can be lackluster. But this area is always a crowd and it's always buzzing and lively
Nice place
A very cultural and enriching experience.
This used to be the Colonial Town hall. It's got lots of history, especially as it's where George Washington gave is first speech as the 1st US president. It was where the first case was fought for the freedom of the press. The have an excellent presentation about Alexander Hamilton. It also used to be the US treasury! There's an amazing statue of George Washington just outside. And an wondering presentation on how this site evolved into its current form.
Bumped into this place while originally want to only visit New York Stock Exchange, and just realized that this is a historic place. Federal Hall was the place that George Washington took the oath to be the first president of America, it is now a free museum and welcome everyone to visit. Take a grant when you visit Lower Manhattan.
This is a tiny little nook I had never even heard about! It is free and it’s a little tiny museum. Was happy to find this place on my walk around downtown!
A hidden gem right in front of the New York Stock Exchange. Lots of history.
Nice place. Free maps and lots to see.
Extremely interesting. Well worth a visit.
Our National Park Service does a great job of preserving our history in places like these while also providing an interesting history lesson.
Looking forward to another visit
I wish growing up I could have visited places like this to learn US history. This was fascinating and worth taking a moment to see where this great Nation began. The also have videos explaining relevant information and if you are like me and need a break from walking.
Inside is wonderful. Outside is great for people watching.
I must Stop on NYC , Visit...Much American History , in That Building & Area !!
Lots of history here. Too bad it was when I got here. The food vendor saved the day though because I was really hungry.
Friendly staff and good exhibits
What a fun little history lesson. Stop by and earn a Jr. Ranger badge!
Starts to get pretty crowded
Washington's Washington. Our first president never lived it worked in the White House, but in this building in New York. This place has some interesting and valuable history and I am glad we didn't miss it.
Beautiful architecture and great place to learn about part of American history. A little gem in the middle of Wall St. It is part of the National Park Service and it is free to visit.
Best food ever...
Good place. All are so magnificent. Should pass by corner of Wall Street and Broadway, big Trinity Catheral over there
Right on the heart of the financial district!
Very cool place with lots of history! My daughter did their junior ranger challenge that each national park offers and we enjoyed all the knowledge it has to offer. The park rangers are very helpful and enthusiastic about teaching people all the interesting facts about federal hall. Worth a visit if you're a fan of history, young or old!
It's a good visual landmark but it could do with a bit more historian information. Scant on interesting details or exhibits.
Very informative display in the rooms. People with all ages will love it
History and landmark event related to the steps of the federal hall to earmark the spot of inauguration of George Washington as President of United States.
Crowded but was able to take a picture at the exact same spot where Bane took someone hostage from the stock exchange.
