About this location
Roger Williams National Memorial in Providence, Rhode Island marks the 1636 founding site of Rhode Island—where religious dissident Roger Williams established America's first colony based on principles of religious freedom and separation of church and state. The small urban park encompasses a colonial spring, interpretive garden plantings, and the surrounding Federal Hill neighborhood's layered 17th through 20th-century Providence urban fabric. Exterior filming available with NPS authorization in this compact downtown Providence park setting. The surrounding historic Providence streetscape extends visual production possibilities beyond the memorial itself. Perfect for colonial American founding-era documentary, Rhode Island history production, and any film requiring authentic early American urban heritage atmosphere in a Northeast setting. A significant Rhode Island film location. Filming permits available through Roger Williams NM Superintendent. NPS Special Use Permit required; urban Providence setting may require city coordination for larger productions.
