Fort Monroe National Monument

Fort Monroe National Monument protects where freedom took root on stolen ground. This coastal Virginia fortress became “Freedom’s Fortress” during the Civil War—the first Southern refuge for self-emancipated enslaved people. The same walls that defended slavery became the birthplace of the Contraband Decision that helped end it. It’s complicated, essential American history that doesn’t fit on a postcard. These 565 acres along Hampton Roads hold centuries of military legacy and the hard truth about who we were and who we’re becoming. Rep the monuments that make us reckon with our past.
