The Official Website of Fort Mifflin on the Delaware
Located on the scenic Delaware River, Fort Mifflin is the site of the largest bombardment the North American continent has ever witnessed. In 1777, during the American Revolution, a valiant five-week battle took place when the British Navy attacked Fort Mifflin in an attempt to open the supply line for the British Army already in Philadelphia. The British shot over 10,000 cannonballs at the Fort causing the garrison to eventually evacuate, but not surrender the Fort, leaving the flag still flying. Over 150 Continental soldiers died as a result of the battle and led Thomas Paine to write: “The garrison , with scarce anything to cover them but their bravery, survived in the midst of the mud, shot & shells, and were obliged to give up more to the powers of time & gunpowder than to military superiority.”
