St. John's Church on Richmond's Church Hill is the setting for one of the best-known moments in American revolutionary history. In March 1775, delegates to the Second Virginia Convention met in the church, where Patrick Henry delivered his "Give me liberty, or give me death" speech urging the colony to prepare for armed resistance against Britain. The building itself dates to the 1740s and remains an active Episcopal parish, with its tall tower and wooden box pews reflecting its colonial origins. The view of the church here shows a site that many visitors associate with the start of the Revolution in Virginia.
