Completed in 1771, the tour includes the buildings role in the Civil and Revolutionary wars. It also informs you about events which brought us many of the freedom's that we enjoy today. On the 3rd floor you will see a ballroom which hold the footprints of many political figures including George Washington. The dungeon is one of the most interesting, and at the same time spooky structures I have ever seen. It's entirely built out of red brick, and it's story is both disturbing and exciting at the same time. Though I am not a big fan of listening to animatronic dummies, they give a lot of interesting facts about the dungeon's past. I really like this structure because it has a design that you probably won't see anywhere else, make sure to bring your camera!
