Military Reenactment Day – August 26
Military Reenactment Day : History comes alive as military reenactors set up encampments from the American Revolution, War of 1812, Civil War, and World Wars. They demonstrate camp life with inspections, formations, musket firings, artillery demonstrations, and drills.
See General George Washington inspect his troops, hear President Abraham Lincoln address his army, and experience a Parrott rifle cannon—forged in Cold Spring at the West Point Foundry—shooting across the Hudson River.
Explore the Historic House Museum at your own pace and direction, with expert guides stationed to offer insight and information. Rain or shine.
Military Re-Enactment Day is proudly presented in partnership with the Living History Education Foundation.
