Mapparium


The Christian Science Center located in the Christian Science Plaza right next to the Prudential building, is a beautiful church that holds the largest pipe organ in the country.  There are more then 13,000 pipes!
 
Located next door in the Mary Baker Eddy Library, also owned by the Christian Science Center is the Mapparium. In this library is a 3 story hand painted glass globe. It's a map lovers dream!
There is a $6 cost to see the Mapparium. Also the parking in that area is limited to a couple of pricey parking garages and some free street parking. I would recommend taking the T, using the prudential stop. You can see both of these sights in just a couple of hours.
