Very good audio tour, well done & informative museum, good presentation by the ranger in the Theatre itself. Worth a visit to learn more about Lincoln, see where he was shot and the room in he died.
Edward Delfino8月 28, 2018
A part of American history. Info & artifacts related to the assassination of Abe Lincoln. This is a place all Americans visiting DC ought to take the time to visit. You might even learn something.
Aaron Smith5月 13, 2015
Museum isn't great. You can see what Abe was wearing when he was shot and also the head his pillow was on. The Peterson house is worth it as is the small show you see in the theatre. Can't see the box

We had a really cool afternoon here, they have a lot of information and displays on the Lincoln assassination and even the actual gun used by John Wilkes Booth.
The Traveler7月 25, 2019
Theater is restored and the seats were comfortable for the presentation on President Lincoln’s assassination. The line out front moves really quickly. I would recommend a visit if in the area.
John Hankus7月 16, 2015
Get there early for the free tickets because they sell out for the day on a first come first serve basis really quick.
Claire Ellen7月 19, 2015

Before/theatre, dine at Bistro d'Oc across the street. Charming, family own & operated;excellent food, ambience, lovely wines. Soak up the history IN Theatre. Enjoy excellent productions.
Cheng Yang10月 17, 2014
If you are coming for an evening performance, other than the French bistro opposite the theatre, try Hard Rock( happy hour 4-7pm) or Harrys( on E st & 11th) for a quick drink & small bites before show

Historical site. Staff presents by heart and makes it even more special.
Matt Wiedenhoeft6月 23, 2013
Audio tour is not worth the extra money. The tour is worth the time & the theater is amazing. You can see directly into the box where Lincoln was shot.
Michelle Fauntleroy12月 29, 2011
saw A Christmas Carol and was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the show! excellent acting, great costumes, a little music and dancing, scary ghosts and the show moved right along!
Danielle S.3月 26, 2013
If you come for the programming outside of the tours and museum, forget One Destiny. Go for the educational talk with park ranger Caleb instead. What a fox!
Denis Hurley6月 29, 2014
The employees will tell you seats in the theater are "first come, first serve," but there are plenty of seats. Stay in the museum as long as you want- there's no need to rush for a seat and wait.
Paul Lester1月 9, 2010
The museum is free but you need to get a ticket at the box office, which is located inside. The video presentations are great. Make sure to watch all of them! 続きを見る

Site of Lincoln’s assassination in 1865, Ford’s is the most visited site, off the Mall, in Washington, DC. Watch this C-SPAN YouTube video for more history from Theatre Director Paul Tetreault. 続きを見る

Don't fight the line to go downstairs. Go up stairs and opposite of the presidential box for the best seats ever.
James C9月 7, 2015
It's a humbling experience. Truly a place that must be seen by all people.
Travel Channel11月 23, 2010
Ford's Theatre has preserved the 1865 scene where President Lincoln was assassinated. Plays are produced on the same stage onto which John Wilkes Booth jumped after the fatal shot.

On the second floor of the Theater, you can see the boxseat where Abe Lincoln was sitting when he was killed. On the lower level the museum displays exhibits about Lincoln’s life and his tragic death.
Erik Gray4月 20, 2017
Watch the play that portrays the days after. It's all done by two actors.
Mark Abraham12月 28, 2012
You can rent the Acoustaguide for $5, or use your smartphone and download the Ford's Theater app. fords.org.
Genie Gohman10月 20, 2012
We walked right in got our tickets and started the tour. This was October which is off season, but there were a lot of tour buses.
Chef Scott Anderson11月 3, 2013
Be sure to talk to volunteers, they have loads of great info

The place where President Abraham Lincoln was shot dead has been restored to how it was on that fateful night. Tours start with an exhibition that tells the story of his presidency. 続きを見る

Across from the no-gum-allowed Ford's Theater, there's a gum tree you stick your gum on and take a picture with. If you're into that kind of nostalgic gum-chewing.
Andy Thompson10月 31, 2010
For being such an old place, Ford Theatre sure is technologically hip! So hip it's Google Maps favorite places and has a Fourswuare special!
Candice Barber4月 17, 2011
Audio tour is worth the 5 bucks. Make sure to check the daily schedule to know when you can enter.
DC Preservation League7月 22, 2011
Built by Baltimore theater entrepeneur John T. Ford in 1833 and reconstructed by architect James J. Gifford in 1863. The theatre was restored in 1967 to 1865 appearance

Only the most dedicated and committed fans of American history come here to learn about the man who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our Nation.
Jobu Jemas7月 20, 2013
The narrator was great. Really made you feel like you were there that night.

Outstanding service from the staff.
Lexy Haynes8月 26, 2010
Especially nice at Christmas time to see A Christmas Carol. :-) Definitely go downstairs to museum, it's amazing.
Julia Pile7月 27, 2013
Need a free timed ticket. Theatre is gorgeous. Rangers do a great job of telling the history.
Dirty Bird8月 9, 2014
So small and hard seats if you're going for a show but historically significant.
Michael X Bell😏3月 23, 2011
Love visiting this museum, great museum in the basement, highly recommend
JESS311月 16, 2011
Head to the back of the building (use the alley off of F) to see where Booth had his horse waiting when he shot Lincoln.
Vivian Nunez1月 2, 2013
Amazing place to learn about Lincoln and Civil War.
Laura Harvey Stout2月 20, 2011
Be sure to give yourself plenty of time to explore and get the audio tour for $5

Cool, quaint, historic
Carie Jones7月 10, 2011
I recommend skipping this stop. Crazy anti-climactic for the wait. The museum exhibit wasn't bad.
pipitu12月 29, 2014
Free tour tickets are available daily at BO.
Michael Castro4月 9, 2013
One of the best free tours in DC.
Dana Specht11月 6, 2011
I found the rangers and staff to be knowlegable, helpful, and fun.
Karin Kreutzer6月 12, 2011
After the assassination the entire building was ultimately gutted due to multiple burnings. The only original element is the brick mortar.
Loretta Stultz7月 5, 2010
This is a great theatre. It has history and it has been done over in the last couple of years.
Shannon M.4月 24, 2013
In march the park service closes off the Lincoln booth because the large school groups create a fire hazard :(
Shannon Jeropke11月 15, 2021
This is where Lincoln was assasinated.
M Squared Real Estate8月 19, 2011
This is where John Wilkes Booth shot President Abraham Lincoln in 1865, and he was taken across the street to the Petersen House where he died.
