Siege of Fort Wayne 1812 at the Old Fort

What is the Second War of Independence really about? The British had been beaten during the Revolutionary War and were no longer here. Right?

Go to the Old Fort on July 10th & 11th and learn why the War of 1812 has become the Forgotten War. Talk with the soldiers as they go about their daily schedules, see the women and children as they complete their tasks. Meet with the Mounted Militia and hear how the militia were so important in the continuation of our freedom.

The Old Fort will be open 11:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, July 10th, and 11:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. on Sunday, July 11th. For more information call (260) 460-4763.

Admission is a freewill donation - donate what you can to support the Old Fort!
