Join park staff, volunteers, period reenactors and guests as we
commemorate the 186th Anniversary of Dades Battle of 1835.

occurred at what is now Dade Battlefield Historic State Park, a National
Historic Landmark. The ceremony will culminate with a wreath laying at the
breastworks in front of the parks Visitor Center. Please note that this is
NOT the reenactment of Dade Battle, which will take place in the park Jan
