Jamestown Settlement, Jamestown Virginia.... The beautiful plaza is the Quadricentennial Plaza to celebrate the 400th Anniversary of Jamestown. 1607 to 2007a flag for each of our 50 states with a plaque telling about the state and when it became a state.
Jamestown settlement was about a two hours walking
tour. Very interesting and so many things from that time.
The full size replicas of the three ships that brought the settlers to the new world.
The anchol was really large but would need to be with the size of the ships. One of the men working the ships had just returned from working on the Lady Washington that was built in Aberdeen. (tall ship)
This is the Tercentennial Monument, built in 1907 to celebrate the 300 anniversary of the Settlement of Jamestown... Jamestown was the first settlement in America. It now has been 402 years. This Monument is made out of marble, not concrete.....
Inscription on the Tercentenary Monument:
I was standing in a hut or house inside the fort where the settlers lived, furs, tobacco for trading and their tools of trade and everything was kept in their houses. We took a walking tour of the 1607 James Fort, the Memorial Church, the blacksmiths, brick makers, tavern, and many other ways of life in first settlement. Jamestown sets on the James River. We walked through this part of the Historic Jamestown, after we had walked for two hours through the Jamestown settlement, they are both very interesting. Historic Jamestown is a National Park and the settlement is a run by the State of Virginia.
