There were at least 18 known duels to occur there between 1700 and 1884, but is most famously known for the duel between Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr in 1804 where Hamilton was fatally shot by Burr. While the dueling grounds are actually located below the cliffs of the New Jersey Palisades, right next to the Hudson River, the park is located on top of the cliffs.Original file name Collage (1).jpg3600x2700Each photograph within this collection is protected by copyright and/or related rights.
