Review:
The Bunker Hill Monument took place on June 17 of 1775. It was the first time New England soldiers fought against the British army in a pitched battle. The bloody battle took place on a hilly land of pastures across the river from Boston. The Marquis De Lafayette, fifty years later, set the cornerstone of the Bunker Hill Monument, a tribute to the battle. Visitors can now make the somewhat challenging climb up to the top of the monument for outstanding views of the surrounding city. Anyone wanting to climb the monument can enter through the Bunker Hill Lodge.
