DID YOU KNOW?

The Joseph Webb House in Wethersfield is a place where history quite literally changed the course of the American Revolution.

More than just a beautiful Georgian-style home, it’s where George Washington and French General Rochambeau laid out plans for the Siege of Yorktown — the decisive battle that secured America’s independence.

In May 1781, the unassuming Joseph Webb House in Wethersfield became the backdrop for one of the most significant turning points in the American Revolution.

For five days, General George Washington and French General Rochambeau met within these very walls, holding crucial discussions that would set the stage for the Siege of Yorktown.

This meeting was no ordinary military conference, though. It was a well-coordinated, strategic collaboration between the American and French forces.

At this time, the tide of the war was beginning to turn, but victory was far from certain. Washington and Rochambeau needed to devise a plan that could deliver a decisive blow to the British army.

The strategy they outlined at the Joseph Webb House would eventually lead to the surrender of British General Cornwallis and his forces at Yorktown just a few months later, effectively ending major combat in the war and securing American independence.

What makes this moment even more compelling is that it took place in a quiet Connecticut home, far from the battlefield.

The Joseph Webb House, nestled in the peaceful town of Wethersfield, became a crucial player in the larger story of the Revolution, serving as the command center for a plan that would change the course of history.

Today, this house stands as one of the most important Revolutionary War landmarks in Connecticut, offering visitors a tangible connection to the past.
