First State National Monument DE,PA

Famous as the First State to ratify the Constitution, Delaware was born out of a conflict among three world powers for dominance of the Delaware Valley.  From this beginning, the region developed a distinct character that tolerated diversity in religion and national origin and valued independence.

Woodlawn
Woodlawn offers some of the best scenic trails in the Brandywine Valley. Woodlawn owns and maintains roughly 2,000 acres of land in Brandywine Hundred and nearby Pennsylvania.  Much of this land is designated as open space used by the public for biking, walking, and horseback riding.  Wide grassy borders along roads and fields are mowed and reserved for public use. Planned foot-trails along streams and through forests provide the public with scenic views of natural areas.

Dover Green
Today, the tavern where Delaware’s legislature ratified the Constitution is gone, but the Green remains a vibrant space for public gatherings.

New Castle Court House
Here, Delaware declared independence and later tested the ideals of the Declaration of Independence in trials of abolitionists.

Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail
The Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail, the first national water trail, follows historic routes of Smith's travels based on his map and journals. It encompasses 3,000 miles in parts of present-day Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, and the District of Columbia.

First State National Monument is a new national park unit.
