<p>The National Monument to the Forefathers, in Plymouth, Massachusetts, was dedicated in 1889 to honor the religious pilgrims who helped to settle land that would become the United States, as well as the core values — faith, morality, trust in law, education, and liberty — guided the settlers as they established their community. The largest solid granite monument in the United States, the Forefathers Monument stands as a tribute to the founders, and the beliefs that inspired their journey across the ocean and provided a foundation for the society they created in the New World.</p>
