Have you ever wanted to explore our neighborhood’s connection to the 1776 Battle of Brooklyn? In addition to a fascinating [PDF guide](http://theoldstonehouse.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/walking-guide.pdf?ref=bklyner.com), the [Old Stone House](http://theoldstonehouse.org/?ref=bklyner.com) has an [interactive map](http://theoldstonehouse.org/battle-of-brooklyn/map/?ref=bklyner.com) and [audio tour](http://theoldstonehouse.org/battle-of-brooklyn/walking-tour-for-podcasting/?ref=bklyner.com) (narrated by John Turturro) that are available for download on their website.

Visit the site of the old Red Lion Inn (**unmarked, but located at 5th Avenue and 37th Street**), where the first shots of the Battle of Brooklyn were fired in a watermelon patch. Learn about Battle Hill (**located in the northwest corner of [Green-Wood Cemetery](http://www.green-wood.com/?ref=bklyner.com) where 6th, 7th, and 8th Avenues meet 20-24th streets on the Cemetery’s northern border**), Flatbush Pass (**just off Flatbush Avenue along the northern side of [Prosect Park](http://www.prospectpark.org/?ref=bklyner.com)**.), the heroic struggle that took place at The Old Stone House (**5th Avenue and 3rd Street**), and more pivotal moments in our country’s battle for independence that we walk by almost every day.

The guide, map, and audio tour are all free to download, so be sure to take a look, and get to know a bit more about our history at home.
