Description:
The Boston Massacre Site in Boston, Massachusetts marks the location where a deadly clash occurred between British soldiers and American colonists on March 5, 1770. This incident in front of the Old State House, resulted in the deaths of five colonists and significantly heightened tensions between the American colonies and Britain. The event, publicized widely and depicted provocatively in Paul Revere's engraving, became a focal point for colonial outrage and anti-British sentiment, contributing to the lead-up to the American Revolutionary War.
