Fraunces Tavern Museum - Revolutionary-era meeting place and farewell to George Washington

Fraunces Tavern occupies a colonial-era building at 54 Pearl Street and houses a museum interpreting New York's Revolutionary War history. The site is historically associated with George Washington's December 4, 1783 farewell to his officers, an event commemorated in the museum's exhibits and preserved rooms. Today Fraunces Tavern operates as both a museum and a restaurant, presenting artifacts, period rooms, and programs about the city's 18th-century history.
