Benjamin Franklin Museum

Learn about one of the nation's founding fathers.

Benjamin Franklin was one of the founding fathers. He signed both the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution and played a major part in helping the United States of America break away from British rule. When you come to this museum, you will learn about Benjamin Franklin through his character traits. The exhibits are interactive, and you will see some artifacts in each area of the museum. This is a great place for history buffs and for school-aged children who are learning about American history. 

The museum is located down the street from Independence Hall and is right across from the museum of the American Revolution in Philadelphia. It has been open since 2013 and will provide visitors with deeper insight into who Benjamin Franklin was on a more personal level.
