More historic places like this need to exist! All the information has been updated within this century, something less common than you'd think. You're free to walk around the beautiful and scenic grounds of the fort, and explore and imagine what life was like for the men and women who lived here over a hundred years ago. I highly recommend everyone come check out this unique, wonderfully preserved part of American history.
Cool place for some history on western expansionism and the battles of the 'civilization' of the native people's. You won't be disappointed.
My 13 year old daughter said "I thought it was going to be boring, but it was very informative.". It kept 3 adults and 2 kids entertained and we all learned something. There were a lot of displays that you can touch/pickup items.
Side note. ..very haunted.
Great informative site.
I love this museum. They have books for sell for the history of this area. Very friendly staff. It's cozy and very informative
the displays are very well done, different aspects of the forts history are divided into small chunks and the self guided tour stays interesting. There are kid friendly displays and information sprinkled throughout.
