On March 5, 1770, a crowd of Bostonians gathered around the Customs House on King Street to jeer and throw snowballs at the British soldiers stationed there. The soldiers, who were under orders not to fire, eventually lost their patience and opened fire on the crowd, killing five men.
The Boston Massacre was a turning point in the American Revolution, as it showed the colonists that the British soldiers were not to be feared but could be fought against. The marker commemorates the spot where the massacre took place and is a reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought for independence.
