It played a pivotal role during the American Revolution, particularly on the night of April 18, 1775, when two lanterns were hung in its steeple as a signal from Paul Revere that the British were approaching by sea, which ignited the American fight for independence. This event is famously captured in the phrase, "One if by land, and two if by sea." Today, it not only functions as an active Episcopal church but also serves as a symbol of freedom and a major historical site, attracting visitors from around the world.
