King's Chapel is an Anglican church located in the city of Boston, United States.
History[edit | edit source]
The church was first constructed by King James II of England in 1680s. However, the church was not popular as Boston was then full of Puritans who had come to the British colony precisely to get away from the Anglican beliefs in England. The church was soon dismantled by the city's governor, who rebuilt it with stone on top of the old public burial ground.[1]
After the American Revolutionary War, the church became known as "The Stone Chapel" for several years, due to the end of the British monarchy in the country.[1]
