First State National Historical Park
First State National Historical Park includes several sites in Delaware.
One of the sites is historic New Castle, which served as the colonial capital of Delaware until 1777.
The New Castle Courthouse was built in 1732 and served as the meeting place for the state's colonial assembly from 1732 to 1777.
It was here where the Delaware Assembly voted on June 15, 1776, to separate from England and from Pennsylvania, creating the "State of Delaware".
