Join James Pasto and Tom Damigella for a two-hour walking tour of Boston’s North End, tracing the neighborhood’s evolution from its founding in 1630 to the present day. The tour highlights key historic sites—including the Paul Revere House, Old North Church, and Copp’s Hill Burying Ground—alongside three landmark Italian churches that reflect the area’s transformation into the heart of Italian American Boston. 

Beyond its famous landmarks, the tour explores the North End as a lived neighborhood, with its many playgrounds, streets, and gathering places, as well as two historic settlement houses that played a central role in supporting immigrant families and shaping community life. Blending history with lived experience, Pasto and Damigella will share stories of everyday life in the North End—family, tradition, and change.

The tour concludes at the North End Historical Museum.
