The Old North Church, Boston

The Old North Church was built in December of 1723. In April of 1775 Paul Revere told three Patriots to hang lanterns in the steeple to signal the movement of the British Army........"One if by land, two if by sea". It is the oldest standing church in Boston and is a National Historic Landmark.

    1. Thank you Cynthia. I have not been to the Old North Church in years. It was so nice to go back and visit it again. I went on a walking tour of the North End. It was fantastic. I'll post more blog posts about this trip soon.
