The Battles of Lexington and Concord were the first military engagements of the American Revolutionary War. They took place on April 19, 1775, in Massachusetts. The battles resulted in an American victory and increased support for the anti-British cause.Â
What happened?
The British marched into Lexington and Concord to seize weapons from the colonists.Â
The colonists' alarm system summoned local militia companies, who were able to counter the British.Â
The militiamen, known as minutemen, were quick-moving and well-suited to irregular warfare.Â
The militiamen fired at the British from behind trees, stone walls, houses, and sheds.Â
The British retreated, abandoning their weapons, clothing, and equipment.
