History

The Tecumseh Monument is located on a site honouring Chief Tecumseh and the Battle of Thames. Great Chief Tecumseh was an indigenous warrior; he played a significant role in the war of 1812. His death in the Battle of Thames marked the end of indigenous resistance against the expansion of the United States on native land.

The site has interpretive panels that allow visitors to learn about the stories of Tecumseh and how he contributed to the battle.
