The Old North Church is Boston's oldest surviving Episcopal church, constructed in 1723. It is a National Historic Landmark recognized for its significant role in the American Revolutionary War, notably associated with Paul Revere's midnight ride. The church features Georgian architecture and is distinguished by its iconic steeple topped with a lantern used for historic signaling.

Serving as both an active place of worship and a museum, the building preserves over 300 years of history. Exhibits focus on its Revolutionary War heritage and the architectural features of the church. The site allows exploration of its importance in American history and the Episcopal tradition.

The church remains a prominent example of colonial American religious architecture, having been designed by William Lightfoot Price. Its bell tower and lantern continue to symbolize its historic communication role during the Revolution.
