Sunrise over the cannons of the Saratoga Surrender Site in Schuylerville, New York.
On this site on October 17, 1777, British General John Burgoyne formally surrendered to American General Horatio Gates after the pivotal Battle of Saratoga. This surrender was a major turning point in the American Revolutionary War because it led to France officially recognizing American independence and joining the war as an ally to the United States.
