A visit to Charlestown is not complete until you climb all 294 steps to the top of this magnificent obelisk!😊
The Bunker Hill Monument is a 221-foot granite obelisk in Boston, Massachusetts, commemorating the Battle of Bunker Hill, a pivotal early battle of the Revolutionary War, though the battle mostly occurred on nearby Breed’s Hill. Completed in 1843, it features a museum with artifacts and dioramas across the street, and visitors can climb 294 steps to the top for views.
