The Old North Church, known officially as the Christ Church in the City of Boston, is a church located in the American city of Boston.

The church was where Robert Newman lit a signal to warn of incoming British troops, which would later originate the famous phrase "one if by land, and two if by sea". This phrase was related to Paul Revere's midnight ride of April 18, 1775, which preceded the Battles of Lexington and Concord, which started the American Revolutionary War.
