Patriots’ Day, observed annually on the third Monday of April, is a holiday with deep roots in American history. It commemorates the beginning of the American Revolutionary War and honors the brave individuals who took the first steps toward the founding of the United States.

It was created to honor the battles of Lexington and Concord, fought on April 19, 1775—events often called “the shot heard ’round the world.” These skirmishes marked the beginning of the Revolutionary War, when colonial militias stood up against British troops in defense of their rights and homes.Read More at: www.americanheritagemuseum.org/2025/04/patriots-day-and-why-we-celebrate-it/ ...
