The Delaware Historical Marker Program, administered by the Delaware Public Archives, has been erecting historical markers throughout the state since 1931. With over 660 markers placed at significant locations and sites, the program represents Delawareans' shared history and serves as a source of pride for local communities.
Each marker is the result of partnerships between the Delaware Public Archives, state legislators, and community members, with funding secured through direct requests to the General Assembly. These markers not only commemorate important historical events and figures but also contribute to the preservation and celebration of Delaware's rich heritage.
