The Old North Church

"Old North Church located in the North End of Boston, is the location from which the famous "One if by land, and two if by sea" signal is said to have been sent. This phrase is related to Paul Revere's midnight ride, of April 18, 1775, which preceded the Battles of Lexington and Concord during the American Revolution."  ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_North_Church )

The Old North Church is the oldest active church building in Boston and is a National Historic landmark. it was built in 1723 by William Price.
