In addition to being the birthplace of the American Revolution, Boston has one other major claim to fame: we have been the most innovative city in the US, and perhaps the world, over the span of more than four centuries. But while our Revolutionary era history has been celebrated, preserved, and presented to millions of visitors each year, our innovation history is at risk of being forgotten.
The new Innovation Trail of Greater Boston aims to celebrate and share the stories about the past, present, and future of science, technology, medical, business, and social innovation — and give visitors a way to experience it. Like the Freedom Trail, this is a walkable trail with 21 key sites, including four museums, spread across Boston and Cambridge.
