FORT MONROE, Va. — "Freedom's Fortress," Fort Monroe, is located on the southern tip of Virginia's Peninsula and was established in 1609. Its picturesque setting along the Chesapeake Bay offers visitors a deep dive into the complexities of American history, architecture, and military heritage.

Fortified in the 19th century, this impressive coastal fortress was a key military post during the U.S. Civil War and played a significant role in the history of slavery and freedom in the United States. In 1619, the ship carrying the first enslaved Africans arrived at Point Comfort, now Fort Monroe.

Today, the monument encompasses the fort's extensive ramparts, a scenic waterfront, and the Casemate Museum, which showcases artifacts and exhibits related to the fort’s military history.
