Site of the first battle between the Minutemen and the Redcoats during the Revolutionary War.
Our Bus Tour of New England stopped here and were were able to visit the site where the American Patriots first faced off with the British Red Coats. Our tour group had the service of a local guide who explained just what happened here in 1775, which made our visit even more enjoyable. The guide also pointed out the houses and building that were standing at the time of the skirmish. The actual Lexington Green is an open park that has the Minuteman Statue standing at one end. At the other is a Monument where the remains of those patriots who were killed are buried. Located adjacent to the Green is Buckman Tavern, which dates back to 1709 and is where the Lexington Minutemen assembled on April 19, 1775 before confronting the Red Coats. The Lexington Green and surrounding area is a must stop for anyone who enjoys history.

The first shots of the Revolutionary War were fired nearby – and, less than a century later, Emerson, Hawthorne, and Thoreau spawned a revolution in American philosophy from here.

The Woburn Library is a great place for everything. You can hang out with friends, print papers out, finish projects, and you can even bring your kid along and drop him at the kids zone for free. Everything at the Woburn Public Library is free. They even have a mini museum inside. And of course the Teen Room where you can hang out with your friends and much more.

We stumbled across ponyhenge without knowing it was there. It’s just a fun little circle of old toy ponies.
