REVOLUTION ON THE RAPPAHANNOCK

​​Revolution on the Rappahannock:  Hunter's Iron Works and American Independence, will be held on June 6-7, 2026 in Falmouth, Virginia. 

​

This Stafford VA250 Commemoration Event features James Hunter, the hero behind Hunter’s Iron Works and the Rappahannock Forge, both historically located on the Rappahannock River near Falmouth.

During the American Revolution, this site was the "greatest Iron Works on the Continent," providing muskets and tools essential to George Washington’s victory. Despite its vital role, this military-industrial hub is often overlooked in history books, but we are about to change that on the eve of America’s 250th Anniversary. 

​

Tickets are $20/person and give you access to the event on BOTH days.  Kids are FREE!

​

Ticket includes access to military reenactments, living history experiences, symposium speakers, and other Rev War adventures.

​

We will post additional details about the schedule, parking, and more. For now, it's time to Save the Date and buy your Early Bird Tickets for this exciting event!
