The Nathan Hale Homestead is a historic home located at 2299 South Street in Coventry, Connecticut. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1970, and was also known as Deacon Richard Hale House.
Nathan Hale was a spy for the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War. After being captured by the British, Hale reportedly gave a speech stating that his only regret was that he had but one life to give for his country. After he was hanged, his body was not returned and was never found. There is a monument to him in a cemetery in his hometown of Coventry, Connecticut. Nathan Hale is Connecticut's state hero.
