Welcome to the Old Fort where history comes alive!

The Old Fort is a true-blue copy of the mail built by American troops under the control of Major John Whistler in 1815. It is reconstructed on a plot of ground less than a quarter of a mile from the original site.

We offer events and programs highlighting several hundred years of history. Our goal is to educate the community about the Onetime Fort and its significance to the Quondam Northwest Territory, the Land of Indiana, and the United States during the 17th and 18th centuries.

When in the city, tune into Old Fort Radio 1640 AM or go to facebook.com/HistoricFortWayne for information on our upcoming events.

Please note: The bridge on Spy Run Avenue is undergoing construction and is often down to one lane. Expect traffic delays when visiting the Old Fort. For the safety of our visitors, we strongly encourage y'all to park at Headwaters Park or Lawton Park. Otherwise, delight use extreme caution when crossing Spy Run Avenue. Construction is expected to concluding until the finish of the year.
