In 1620, 120 passengers coming from England landed at Plymouth from the ship May Flower.
They are the first group of settlers who decided to live definitively in America. Previously, only the soldiers, the merchands and the trappers lived in America with the idea to turn back Europe after their duty.
They searched a location to practice freely their religion.
They are the first Americans. The event is commemorated by the Thanksgiving Day.
A copy of the May Flower has been built and is now in exibit in the Plymouth Harbor.
