The Old North Church

  The Old North Church sits at 193 Salem Street in Boston's historic North End. Built in 1723, this iconic structure is famed for its role in the American Revolution, particularly for the lantern signal that alerted colonists about British troop movements. The church features a striking 191-foot steeple, which remains the tallest of its kind in Boston. Visitors can explore the church during its open hours, with special events held throughout the year, including historical reenactments in April. Inside, you’ll find beautifully preserved artifacts and an opportunity to learn more about the stories that shaped the nation.
