Connecticut's Old State House

Connecticut’s Old State House is pleased to participate in LONG WEEKEND, a city-wide festival where the City of Hartford takes center stage from Wednesday, July 1 to Sunday, July 5! Come celebrate history through the lenses of film, art, music, culture, and technology. It’s a modern gathering rooted in the place where America first learned to write itself into existence.
Did you know that General George Washington and Alexander Hamilton stood on the grounds of Connecticut’s Old State House in September of 1780 to meet with French General Jean-Baptiste de Rochambeau and the Marquis de Lafayette? This meeting marked the start of an alliance that led to American independence and ended the Revolutionary War.
Connecticut’s Old State House stands as a testament to the rich tapestry of our state’s democratic evolution, having housed all three branches of Connecticut’s government from 1796 to 1878.
This historic site has borne witness to some of the most pivotal narratives of freedom, democracy, and civic engagement in our state's history, including the landmark Amistad and Prudence Crandall trials, as well as the Constitutional Convention of 1818. Each of these events not only shaped the legal and social framework of Connecticut but also ignited a spirit of civic responsibility that resonates to this day!
Come for a tour and see Gilbert Stuart’s famous portrait of our nation's first president. Visit the historic House and Senate chambers and see the office of Connecticut’s current Kid Governor and cabinet. Check out an interactive exhibit in the Mortensen Gallery and the portraits and odd collection housed in Joseph Steward’s Museum of Curiosities.
Connecticut’s Old State house is located just steps away from restaurants, entertainment and shopping.
PARKING: Parking at State House Square Parking Garage, located at 75 Market Street, costs a maximum of $10 with validation from Connecticut’s Old State House. Metered street parking is available. Free on-street parking is available after 6 pm and on weekends. Please follow posted parking instructions.
Our Doors Are Open: Our building is mobility friendly with a ramp on the West side entrance and elevator access to all floors. Our bathrooms are on the ground floor and have changing tables. If you wish to inquire about special accommodations for a tour or special event, please call (860) 860-240-5340.Happens on the following Dates:

An evening of history, oration &amp; colonial “musick” marking America’s 250th birthday The Evening’s Program.
Where better to celebrate America’s 250th than Connecticut’s Old State House, the spot where Connecticut’s patriots conspired, debated, and dared to break with a crown? Step inside the historic courtroom — transformed into a colonial tavern alive with the spirit of 1776. Enjoy tavern fare and conversation as:
Historian Dr. Matthew Warshauer of Central Connecticut State University traces Connecticut’s bold march to independence: from Common Sense and the firebrand Connecticut Courant, to the moment Governor Trumbull called an emergency Assembly on June 14, 1776 and Connecticut declared itself free.
Re-enactor Dayne Rugh steps into the boots of Jonathan Trumbull, giving voice to Connecticut’s own Proclamation of Independence.
Musician Richard Franklin Donohue performs a fiery repertoire of revolutionary-era “musick,” setting the unmistakable mood of a colony on the edge of history.
Enjoy light tavern fare and a cash bar.
This event is FREE and open to the public.

Stowe Center for Literary Activism

As the United States approaches its 250th anniversary, we have an opportunity to reflect on the stories, struggles, and ideals that have shaped our nation.

This gathering invites neighbors into conversation, reflection, and community connection in a welcoming space where dialogue can spark understanding and action. Together, we’ll explore what America250 means, how the past continues to shape the present, and what responsibilities we share as we imagine the next chapter of our collective story.

Before we can find common ground, we must ask: are we on equal ground?
Through a story of a historical radical and his memorialization in monuments, we unpack the idea of neutrality to begin to situate our own views as part of the wide political spectrum of our time. In so doing, we help folks feel better equipped to navigate the deeply held and very different beliefs of friends, family, acquaintances, and strangers alike.
A shareable toolkit for engaging in challenging conversations is available as a supplement to this experience, giving participants what they need to engage with wildly divergent political viewpoints—and to share space, search for, and build common ground together.
This experience is made possible with support from, and in partnership with, <a href="https://www.ctpublic.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Connecticut Public.</a>
