Old North Church (officially, Christ Church in the City of Boston), at 193 Salem Street,
This is in the first stanza of Longfellow's poem The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere written in 1861. He is telling how Revere would know how the British came into Boston . One lantern by land and two lanterns by sea from the Old North Church. In this way Revere would know how to warn the colonists. As a point of reference Revere did not finish his ride.
It is where two lanterns were lit in the belfry to indicate that the British would be arriving by sea, spurring Paul Revere through the countryside with the warning, "To arms! To arms! The British are coming! The British are coming!"

Paul Revere did not actually carry any lanterns during his famous ride. He had arranged for a look-out to observe British movements and display one or two lanterns in the tower of Old North Church. One lantern ment the British were advancing by land. Two lanterns ment the British would be crossing the Charles River by boat. Both paths led to Concord, but the attack route would determine defensive strategy. During the evening of April 18, 1775, Revere observed two lanterns in the church tower and began is ride.
