Everyone knows Salem for the 1692 Witchcraft Trials, but did you know that Salem made significant contributions to the American Revolution? The shot heard round the world almost happened here, we were known for our Privateers (legal Pirates), who were the most successful against the British, and British Governor General Thomas Gage encountered some of his biggest challenges to his authority in Salem.

We say that without Salem, the United States may not be the same United States we know today.
Come to Salem and learn the incredible role that our Patriots played in the start of our country.
