It is now, and always has been, the rendezvous of the oldest band of citizen soldiers in America, the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company. Some notable people have been entertained by Boston citizens, among them, Lafayette in 1784 and Jerome Bonaparte in 1804, who dined within the hospitable walls. President Jackson held a reception in the hall while on a visit to Boston. While the market walls are decorated by stalls, containing eatables of every variety, the walls of the hall above are hung with the portraits by famous artists of persons of historic interest, among them, Webster, Hancock, Adams, Peter Faneuil, Lincoln, Choate and many others.

==Trivia==
The name Faneuil is most commonly pronounced like the name "Daniel", though some pronounce it as Fan-yoo-ul.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=JFf0_FgFFwoC&pg=PA161 Chapter 11: Discovering Boston's Best Attractions - Faneuil Hall]</ref>
