Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad National Historical Park is located in Dorchester, Caroline, and Talbot counties on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. The park includes the 480-acre Jacob Jackson site administered by the National Park Service, parts of Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge administered by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad State Park, and private land. The park offers abundant natural resources and seeks to preserve them to reflect the landscape and ambiance that was present when Harriet Tubman lived in Maryland more than 150 years ago. The site was formally added to the National Park System as a National Monument in 2013 and as a National Historical Park in 2014, recognizing Harriet Tubman’s life and work as a slave and freedom fighter.
