Cost: Free
Visit the House of Spain (HOS) in Balboa Park to learn more about Spain's involvement in the American Revolutionary War. We'll be joined by members of the Sons of the American Revolution that will retell the events of this historic time. Why does the HOS celebrate the Independence of the United States? Most people do not know that without the help of Spain during the Revolutionary War, George Washington and the fathers of the American revolution would have not been able to defeat Great Britain. Come to the HOS and we, along with members of the Sons of the American Revolution, will explain and show you books, pictures and letters of Spain’s involvement in the American Revolutionary War and the reason why most of this was done in secret.
