Fort George was a key British stronghold during the War of 1812 and saw fighting along the Niagara frontier before being rebuilt and later restored to its early 19th-century appearance. Operated today by Parks Canada, the site lets visitors explore reconstructed barracks, blockhouses and earthworks while costumed staff demonstrate period drills, musket and artillery firing, and everyday military life.
Sitting at the edge of Old Town near the mouth of the Niagara River, it is an easy and memorable stop for anyone interested in Canada's early colonial and military history.
