Beautiful and historic venue for a wedding ceremony. We visited in July. It was a little warm because no air conditioning. We really enjoyed the Quaker self-uniting ceremony with no officiant and it was very special that every guest signs the wedding certificate.

I poped in to get out of the rain. I was surprised by the Interesting history. The staff was very friendly and knew her stuff. The exhibits tell a decent story. I love the simple arcitecture of this historic building. Definitely worth a look. Glad the rain led me here.

Super friendly staff, really important site to the history and current life of Quakers. The meeting hall(s) are a wonderful peek into Quaker worship then and now. The museum also gives really interesting snapshots of Quakers in America and in global action.
A National Historic Landmark and active Quaker meetinghouse to this day located in the heart of Old City, Philadelphia.
Arch Street Meeting House was built in 1804 on a burial ground originally deeded by William Penn in 1701. There are as many as 20,000 bodies buried on the Arch Street Meeting House property! Step inside this active Quaker meeting house to learn more about the stories of the people, the building, and the grounds of Arch Street.
