About the Presentation & Tours

Explore the El Chamizal boundary dispute between the United States and Mexico (1864–1964), caused by the shifting Rio Grande. The presentation connects property rights, boundaries, acquisition and relocation to the work we do today.

After the presentation, choose a guided Casemate Museum visit or a walking tour of Fort Monroe. Tim Copeland has also offered to lead an informal tour. Mention the museum when you RSVP so tickets can be arranged.
