MINUTE MAN NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARKwas created by an act of Congress in 1959 to preserve and interpret the events, ideas, significant historic sites, structures, properties and landscapes associated with the opening of the American Revolution at Concord's North Bridge and along the Battle Road of April 19, 1775.

The Park, with its restored colonial landscape, sites and structures, and knowledgeable staff, is a valuable resource for teachers and students of American history.

Education programs bring the story of April 19, 1775 to life for students and connect classroom lessons to memorable field experiences.

We also offer orientations and tours for visiting teachers. In addition, Minute Man National Historical Park, in cooperation with Concord / Carlisle Community Education, is pleased to offer teachers, museum educators, tour directors and any one interested in American history, a two day Professional Development workshop 1775 IMMERSION, scheduled for November 4-5, 2006.
