Homestead National Monument preserves the site of the first homestead claimed via The Homestead Act of 1862. This park is really amazing, one of the more underrated parks I have been to. I was particularly pleased to see that while praising the success of the Homestead Act, the horrible toll it took on the Native Americans in these areas was not glossed over. The picture is of the old one room schoolhouse which served the area.
