Elfreth’s Alley is an “exceptional example of early American structures built between 1720 and 1830” according to the historic marker designated in 2016. The Elfreth’s Alley Museum (located at houses 124 and 126) celebrates the working class of America who helped build this country through sweat and commerce. The alley is still a thriving residential community which is home to artists and artisans, educators and entrepreneurs, and everything in-between. 

The Museum of Elfreth’s Alley is a National Historic Landmark that celebrates three centuries of everyday Americans. You’ve heard the American story through its founders and rulers, come hear it through the lives and experiences of its citizens!
