Something Important Happened Here!

I brake for historical road markers

My kids used to think of history as irrelevant because it happened long ago to people with whom they had no connection. That misconception stopped during our carschooling travels as historical highway markers shouted at us, "Something important happened right here!" As I hit the brakes and pulled over, it gave my kids a place in their own world that they could connect to the history that had occurred there. 

Highway historical markers exist along interstates and byways in America and other countries, too.

You don't have to drive aimlessly around searching for historical markers. Simply click on this Historical Marker Resource Directory for websites and/or guidebooks for historical markers in every state.
