Everything about George Rogers Clark National Historical Park totally explained
George Rogers Clark National Historical Park is a
United States National Historical Park located in downtown
Vincennes,
Indiana on the banks of the
Wabash River at what is believed to be the site of
Fort Sackville. A classical memorial here was authorized under
President Coolidge and dedicated by
Roosevelt in
1936.
In a
celebrated campaign, Lt. Col.
George Rogers Clark and his frontiersmen captured Fort Sackville and British Lt. Governor
Henry Hamilton on
February 25,
1779. The heroic march of Clark's men from
Kaskaskia on the
Mississippi River in mid-winter and the subsequent victory over the British remains one of the great feats of the
American Revolution.
In
1966 Indiana transferred the site to the
National Park Service. Adjacent to the memorial there's a visitor center where one can see interpretive programs and displays. The center is located on South 2nd Street in Vincennes.
