Beautiful and well-preserved building, part of the First State National Historic Park and promoted as one of its seven main attractions. We walked in and were greeted by a friendly bearded gentleman, who gave us a wonderful 40-minute tour for free. It was through his stories that the place came to life and made us appreciate its historic significance. The tour ended at the second floor, where there is a small exhibition on the history of European settlement in Delaware.We visited in the summer and the air-conditioned interior was definitely a welcome break from the intense heat. They also have clean restrooms at the basement.

I attended a Black History Month event here. It was interesting, well thought out, and free. The building, rich in history, has been lovingly restored. Parking is a bit challenging though.

This incredible building was a British court, capitol building, colonial assembly hall, and tea house. Make sure to get a guided tour of the building- you will learn so much about Delaware! Seriously, this was one of the best tours Ive ever been on.
