Abstract: The arboreal Galois group of a polynomial $f$ over a field $K$ encodes the action of Galois on the iterated preimages of a root point $x_{0}inK$, analogous to the action of Galois on the $ell$-power torsion of an abelian variety. We compute the arboreal Galois group of the postcritically finite polynomial $f(z)=z^2-1$ when the field $K$ and root point $x_0$ satisfy a simple condition. We call the resulting group the arithmetic basilica group because of its relation to the basilica group associated with the complex dynamics of $f$. For $K=mathbbQ$, our condition holds for infinitely many choices of $x_0$.
