Historic Fort Snelling


Explore with the reenactors as military encampments come back to life at historic Fort Snellingn this Memorial Day weekend. Costumed living historians will be on hand to interpret 225 years of military history. A flag raising will dedicate the new Fort Snelling flagpole, recently reconstructed in its original 1820’s location. Fort Snelling was home to some twenty-five thousand Union soldiers during the Civil War. This event is offered by the Minnesota Historical Society.
