Green-Wood's Battle of Brooklyn Family Day

  • The Green-wood Cemetery 25th Street Brooklyn, NY, 11232 United States (map)

Join the Lott House at Green-Wood's Battle of Brooklyn Family Day! Step back in time to August 1776 and experience the excitement of the Battle of Brooklyn, the largest battle of the Revolutionary War and the first to take place after the signing of the Declaration of Independence. 

Step into a Revolutionary-era farmer's boots and imagine daily life farming in Brooklyn — including the tools, techniques, and challenges they faced under British occupation. See and touch farm tools from our collection and discover the history of Flatlands farmers during the Revolution.

This program is part of Battle Week organized by our friends at the Old Stone House.

Registration recommended. Suggested donation of $5 per person registered.
