A highlight of the Marquis de Lafayette’s historical visit to Western New York during his 1824-1825 tour of the United States. We explore the political and economic context of the United States, how Lafayette was received by local communities near Canandaigua, and the lasting impact of his visit on American identity. We will reflect on Lafayette’s legacy and how his travels reminded America of its revolutionary roots.
