Battle Road Unit
The Battle Road Unit of the park follows the route of the 1775 Battle Road for over five miles, from Lexington through Lincoln to Concord. Within this unit are the Minute Man Visitor Center, Hartwell Tavern, and the 5.5 mile, 11-mile round trip Battle Road Trail, which connects historic sites with natural areas in the park.

Built in 1733, the restored Hartwell home and tavern situated along the Battle Road provides a perfect setting for visitors to step back in time to April of 1775. Speak with costumed interpreters and park living history volunteers, observe colonial living demonstrations and learn about the daily lives of those men and women who took part in the 1775 Revolution.

Minute Man Visitor Center features the multi-media show "Road to Revolution," interpretive exhibits, a 40 by 15-foot battle mural, and a bookstore, providing visitors a basic orientation of the park. Visitors are encouraged to begin their tour of the park at this center.
