The Ideals Guide to Historical Places of Worship

From the Old North Church, where two lanterns signalled the start of the American Revolution, to the Spanish missions of the West to Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church , from which Martin Luther King Jr emerged as a national leader, here is a collection of places of worship that have played a role in the history of our country. Each listing includes tourist information (address, telephone number, website address, hours of operation) as well as a description of the site and its historical significance.
