Johnson House Historic Site

Welcome to the Johnson House, Philadelphia’s only accessible and intact stop on the Underground Railroad.

 The Johnson House was home to three generations of Quaker families who worked to abolish slavery and improve living conditions for freed African Americans.

Today the Johnson House offers hour long docent led tours which can be customized to suit your needs and interests. Please join us to experience an authentic Underground Railroad setting.
