Accessibility
The front door is accessed via two stone stairs without a railing. For on-level access, guests can go through the gate on the left of the building and follow a short brick path to the rear entrance, which is open during museum hours.
Visiting rooms beyond the ground floor in Gadsby’s Tavern Museum involves ascending/descending multiple staircases. While the Museum does not have an elevator, staff can offer a photographic tour of the building for those who cannot climb stairs.
All room panels are available online for increased accessibility, whether for viewing upstairs panels, translation, or text-to-speech screen readers.
The City of Alexandria complies with the terms of ADA. For reasonable disability accommodation, contact our staff at Alex 311 or 703.746.4554, Virginia Relay 711.
