Washington's Farewell

Produced by Fraunces Tavern® Museum
On December 4, 1783, nine days after the last British soldiers left American soil, General George Washington visited Fraunces Tavern. He invited his officers from the Continental Army to thank them for their service, and to bid them farewell. After embracing each officer and wishing them well, Washington left for Annapolis, where he would resign his military commission before traveling on to Mount Vernon. The only first-hand account of this emotional goodbye comes from The Memoirs of Colonel Benjamin Tallmadge, which Fraunces Tavern Museum has on display.
This film, starring Dan Shippey as General George Washington, Beau Robbins as Colonel Benjamin Tallmadge, and Michael Funk as General Henry Knox, reimagines, Washington's emotional farewell to his officers in the Long Room at Fraunces Tavern.
