King’s Chapel is an independent Unitarian Christian church located in Boston, Massachusetts. The original King's Chapel was established in 1686 by Royal Governor Sir Edmund Andros and was the first Anglican Church in New England. The current building, designed by noted colonial architect Peter Harrison and built in 1754, is a National Historic Landmark for its architectural significance. The chapel follows a Unitarian version of the Book of Common Prayer and still includes many Anglican elements. Inside, wooden columns with hand-carved Corinthian capitals line the walls and box pews provide seating for visitors. Notable features of the chapel include an original bell cast by Paul Revere, an impressive organ, and a monument to Samuel Vassall, a 17th century merchant and early deputy of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
