Fort Monroe National Monument

Fort Monroe National Monument Aerial Footage Hampton, Virginia, United States. Fort Monroe National Monument spans the American story through the 21st century: American Indian presence, Captain John Smith's journeys, a safe haven for freedom seekers during the Civil War, and a bastion of defense for the Chesapeake Bay. A public planning process will determine future public services and programming at this new national park with a centuries-old tradition. The National Park Service turns 100 on August 25, 2016. As we lead up to the centennial, we invite you to participate in Find Your Park Experiences to learn, discover, be inspired, or simply have fun in national parks. Find Your Park Experiences offer unique opportunities to explore national parks both in person and online. Search all experiences to identify an opportunity that matches your interests or share your national park story at FindYourPark.com. A Call to Action remains the foundation for our 2016 centennial preparations. It is the National Park Service’s blueprint for the future, outlining the innovative work we want to accomplish. We are a big part of this effort. Take a look at what we're doing and get involved! Stories of America’s diverse places and people are everywhere. Our stories are found across the landscapes of our nation, in more than 400 national parks, in National Heritage Areas, along historic trails and waterways, and in every neighborhood. The National Park Service invites you to discover American history in all its diversity, from ancient archeological places to the homes of poets and Presidents to the sobering stories of Civil War soldiers and civilians to the legacy of a courageous woman who refused to give up her seat on a bus. Our history is part of who we were, who we are, and who we will be. Our national Heritage Initiatives are helping us to tell the stories of all Americans and recognizing the special places associated with our diverse past. www.nps.gov Fort Monroe National Monument - the best aerial videos
