The Lake George Battlefield Park Alliance is sponsoring free, expert-led tours of Battlefield Park’s sculptures on Sunday, Oct. 12, with a tour leaving from the Battlefield Park Visitor Center on Fort George Road at 1 p.m. and a second tour leaving at 3 p.m. The tours are part of the I Love NY Path Through History weekend.
The three recently restored sculptures, Battle of Lake George, Mohawk Warrior, and Isaac Jogues, serve as works of art and monuments to the history of the park and the Lake George Region. Local historians will lead the tours and discuss the history and significance of each monument.
