Freedom Park is located along the Niagara River and is regarded as a major terminus of the enslaved person crossing into Canada. The site is also known as a destination along the Freedom Trail, which follows the path of the Underground Railroad. In addition, this historic site was envisioned to include a location for public gatherings.
The addition of a powerful figurative bronze sculpture has memorialized slavery’s ultimate abolition in North America and Fort Erie’s role as a haven to those who endured and won the struggle for freedom.
