Capture At Fort Crown Point Commemoration

Relive history at Crown Point State Historic Site

Crown Point kicks off the site’s commemoration of the 250 th Anniversary of the American Revolution. On May 11, 1775, Seth Warner led a contingent of Green Mountain Boys to capture Crown Point, only three weeks after the American Revolution began at Lexington and Concord. This early victory secured cannons and artillery for the revolutionary cause and helped establish American control of Lake Champlain early in the war.
