The Stonewall Inn

The Stonewall Inn, nestled in downtown Manhattan’s West Village, stands as a pivotal site in LGBTQ+ history. In 1969, this bar was the epicenter of an uprising that catalyzed the gay rights movement. Today, it is recognized as a National Historic Landmark and forms part of the Stonewall National Monument, the first such monument in the U.S. dedicated to the LGBTQ+ rights movement. Visitors can explore the very place where a significant chapter in the fight for equality began, immersing themselves in the rich and transformative history of the community.
