Historic Fort Wayne

Directions Website

Historic Fort Wayne http://www.oldfortwayne.org The Old Fort is on public park grounds, so you can always wander around, into the parade grounds, etc.

The buildings themselves are only open during events when we have volunteers on site. There is a brochure available outside some of the buildings and it has a map with information about the history of the fort and how each of the buildings would have been used. Historic Fort Wayne is a Non-Profit Organization that manages the Old Fort in Fort Wayne, IN. We are a 100% volunteer organization. All of our events are free to the public. All programing is funded by private and corporate donations.
