Although Jamestown, the first colonial capital of Virginia, had ceased to be a town by the time of the American Revolution, its legacy endured. This exhibition examines the lives of some of the individuals living in the Revolutionary War era who were descendants of people associated with 17th-century Jamestown and features artifacts acquired for the future American Revolution Museum at Yorktown (to replace the Yorktown Victory Center), including a 19th-century life-size sculpture of George Washington.
Admission Fee: Jamestown Settlement admission is $16.00 for adults and $7.50 for ages 6-12. Children under 6 are free. A value-priced combination ticket with the Yorktown Victory Center, a museum of the American Revolution, is $20.50 for adults and $10.25 for ages 6-12. Special exhibition included with admission.
