Walking Tour: Churches of the Back Bay

Our September Tour of the Month!

While dwarfed by modern high rises, Boston's Back Bay churches hold their own as spiritual sentinels of the city's skyline. Many continue to house Boston's oldest congregations; others, in re-use, serve the city in new and delightful ways.  Join us as we examine buildings like the Arlington Street Church, the oldest in the Back Bay, and the Church of the Covenant, whose steeple was proclaimed "absolutely perfect" by Oliver Wendell Holmes.
