The Chimney Rock was designated a California Historic Landmark (No.737) on June 6, 1960. Chimney Rock is located near Lucerne Valley, California in the mountains north of the Rabbit Springs Dry Lake and of California State Route 18 near the Rabbit Springs Road junction. It is the site of the last battle between immigrant settlers and a Native American tribe in the Mojave Desert. Conflicts between Indians and white settlers over the rich lands of the San Bernardino Mountains ended in the battle at Chimney Rock on February 16, 1867. The Indians defended themselves against the settlers. But in the end they retreat into the desert. This ended the mountain food gathering of the Indians. A historical marker is beside Highway 18, next to the welcome sign on the town's western border.
