Lincoln gave his Gettysburg address on November 19, 1863. Those 271 words will be read again in Winsted on Veterans Day, November 11, 2018, at the Soldiers’ Monument on Crown Street at precisely 3PM. The Soldiers’ Monument Commission will have the 128-year old, 60-foot tall monument open on that Sunday from 2PM to 4PM. In the event of inclement weather, the ceremony will be canceled.
