Arch Street Meeting House

Built in 1804 atop Philadelphia’s first burial ground, on land deeded to Quakers by William Penn in 1701, Arch Street Meeting House aims to be the preeminent destination for experiencing and learning about Quaker contributions to society throughout history for thousands of visitors from all around the world.

Most meetinghouses are a quarter of the size of the Arch Street Meeting House, which is so large because it was constructed to hold an annual meeting of Quakers from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, and Delaware.
