The Lafayette Trail Across Western New York: Memorializing a National Historical Event

In partnership with The Lafayette Trail, our Lafayette Trail historical marker program helps communities commemorate General Lafayette’s 1824–25 Farewell Tour across the United States. Grant-funded Pomeroy Markers are installed at locations where Gen. Lafayette visited, preserving the stories of his journey and celebrating his enduring legacy. Learn about the program and Lafayette’s route through Western New York in Western New York Heritage magazine.
