HISTORY OF THE INDEPENDENCE: SCHOONER MODEL
Discover the ship Independence, wooden model of this schooner of the War of Independence of the United States. Launched in 1775 and armed with 6 cannons, this ship contributed to the birth of a new liberal and democratic nation.
During the American Revolution, the British Royal Navy blocked all ports to prevent the arrival of supplies for the Continental Army.
