Fort Montgomery is located in Bear Mountain State Park, Bear Mountain, NY 10911 in Rockland County in the Hudson River Valley. Fort Montgomery was the scene of a fierce Revolutionary War battle for control of the Hudson River. Visitors can tour the remains of the 14 ½ acre fortification, perched on a cliff overlooking the magnificent Hudson River. Fort Montgomery State Historic Site is not a reproduction fort; it is a genuine vestige of our nation's struggle for independence. Visitors will see the actual foundations of the fort's buildings and remains of the fort's earthworks.
The Stony Point Battlefield marks the "Battle of Stony Point" and the victory of the American light infantry over the British in a daring midnight raid.
The British had captured the peninsula of Stony Point in May 1779, and began to fortify it by erecting an earthen fort and two barriers called abatis. Sir Henry Clinton garrisoned Stony Point and Verplanck's Point with about 1,000 men to protect the King's Ferry, which crossed the Hudson River between the two posts. Clinton then launched raids against Connecticut coastal towns, in a continuing attempt to lure Washington into battle.
General Washington devised a plan for Brigadier General Anthony Wayne and his Corps of Light Infantry to lead a surprise midnight assault against Stony Point. The heaviest fighting lasted half an hour, and by 1 a.m. the British garrison had surrendered. Three days later, Washington abandoned Stony Point because he knew it could not be defended against the combined might of the British army and navy centered just thirty miles downriver in New York City.
