Official Facebook page for Coronado National Memorial
Welcome to the official Facebook page for Coronado National Memorial. The National Park Service cares for special places for American people so that all may experience our heritage. Coronado NMem commemorates our Spanish colonial history in the American Southwest and northwest Mexico, and interprets the cultural landscape and history of the Coronado Expedition of 1540-1542.
It was a journey of conquest and exploration, filled with wonder and cruelty. Inspired by rumors of vast civilizations in the northern "Terra Incognita", 339 European soldiers, over 1100 Indian allies, and unknown numbers of servants and slaves embarked on an epic journey through arid deserts and rugged mountains of modern-day northern Mexico and southwest US. They brought rich traditions and new technologies along with disease and warfare, irrevocably changing the lives of the native peoples and continuing to influence the area today.
"...to promote and regulate the use of the...national parks...which purpose is to conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and the wild life therein and to provide for the enjoyment of the same in such manner and by such means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations."
