I took my students here today for a field trip, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience! The educator and staff greeted us with such kindness, and they were so welcoming. Our educator, Emily, was full of knowledge and it was so engaging to watch and listen to her. My students enjoyed interacting with Emily, answering questions, and making connections to movies they have seen. This place is such a gem and there is so much to gain from your visit. The Bowne House is so rich with history, and I can't wait to learn even more on my next tour. I am definitely bringing my family and friends when they come to NYC. I'd give the Bowne House 10 stars if I could! It's well worth the visit!
I like this place very much. It's quiet and peaceful. I live nearby, and I will often come here for a short time to enjoy the scenery!
Beautiful and historic home. One of the hidden treasures of New York City. If ever in Flushing, Queens then this is someplace that one should go and visit.
One of the oldest homes in NYC. Built in 1661 by Englishman John Bowne who later became a Quaker. Great gem in Flushing Queens to bring the children or for architectural buffs to view this beautiful home.
Great museum to learn about the history of New York.
Fascinating. Moving. Historic. Associated with the Flushing Remonstrance, one of our first great declarations of religious liberty. A rare piece of 17th century life in bustling Flushing, Queens.
Great historic home and a Quaker home of brave abolishonists.
