Hannah Duston Memorial State Historic Site
Hannah Duston Memorial State Historic Site, State historic site in Boscawen, United States.
The 35-foot granite monument stands on a small island at the intersection of the Contoocook and Merrimack rivers in New Hampshire.
Built in 1874 as New Hampshire's first publicly funded statue, the memorial depicts Hannah Duston who escaped Native American captivity during King William's War.
The memorial represents the complex relationships between European settlers and Native Americans during the colonial period of New England's development.
Located at 298 US Route 4, the site remains open year-round for visitors, though facilities and staff are limited during off-season periods.
The statue marks the exact location where Hannah Duston and two other captives executed their escape plan in 1697 on the small river island.
