Fun Facts

The bench in Boston's Public Garden became famous after a heartfelt scene between Robin Williams and Matt Damon in the 1997 film 'Good Will Hunting.'

Visitors often leave quotes and messages in honor of Robin Williams, who passed away in 2014.

The Boston Public Garden, established in 1837, is the oldest public botanical garden in the United States.

From the bench, you can see the iconic suspension bridge, which was completed in 1867 and is a popular photo spot.

The bench is one of several stops on unofficial tours that highlight filming locations from 'Good Will Hunting' and other movies shot in Boston.
