Boston Freedom TrailThe Freedom Trail is a 2.5-mile red-brick walking trail that leads to 16 nationally significant historic sites, each one an authentic American treasure.

Old North ChurchThe Old North Church is officially known as Christ Church in the City of Boston. It was built in 1723, and is the oldest standing church building in Boston. The enduring fame of the Old North began on the evening of April 18, 1775, when the church sexton, Robert Newman, climbed the steeple and held high two lanterns as a signal from Paul Revere that the British were marching to Lexington and Concord by sea and not by land. This fateful event ignited the American Revolution. |
 |
The Paul Revere HouseOn the night of April 18, 1775, silversmith Paul Revere left his small wooden home in Boston's North End and set out on a journey that would make him into a legend. Today that home is still standing at 19 North Square and has become a national historic landmark. It is downtown Boston's oldest building and one of the few remaining from an early era in the history of colonial America. |

Both the document and the ship have proven to be resilient symbols of America's strength, courage, and liberty. The Constitution is on duty as "America's Ship," representing our proud naval heritage and all those who have fought so gallantly to preserve America's freedom. |
