American History at your doorstep!

Delaware itself is a mecca for history buffs. Located on the Delmarva Peninsula (Delaware, Maryland and Virginia Peninsula), Delaware boasts a long multi-cultural history. In 1609, Henry Hudson claimed the territory for the Dutch. He found the area inhabited by the Lenni Lenape Indians. In 1638 the Swedes established their New Sweden Colony at Wilmington. The first permanent Dutch settlement was also established in that year. In 1664 Delaware fell under British rule and in 1704 Proprietor William Penn allowed colonists to establish their own legislature.

The city of Dover grew quickly in the 18th century, with stately houses built around an attractive green, personally designed by William Penn. History oozes out of every blade of grass on the Green in Dover. The square is a spitting image of its original platting in 1722. During the Revolutionary War, the tract served as meeting place for Delaware’s Continental Regiment. They mustered in 1775 and set out on a march to join Washington’s army in the fight for independence. Come and visit the place where, in 1776, the Declaration of Independence was read aloud to crowds gathered in support of the cause of freedom. Also in 1776, Delaware’s Caesar Rodney cast the deciding vote for the Declaration of Independence.
