Time: about 45–60 minutes, longer if exploring Church Hill. Historic St. John’s Church is one of those Richmond spots where you can actually stand in the middle of a moment that changed American history. In March 1775, the Second Virginia Convention met here, and Patrick Henry delivered his famous “Give me liberty or give me death!” speech. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and other prominent Virginians were also among the delegates.
