Old Fort Western

Incredibly informative, guided tour for only $10! Quite the historical sight. Definitely recommend visiting if you happen to be in the area.

We had a great time at the oldest existing wooden fort in the US. The docents were fun and very knowledgeable. It has such a great history after being a fort, too! Right in Augusta!

Pretty nice place to visit. I love history so, nice to see an old trading post. Pretty small but they usually were. Nice park about a 5 minute or less walk away. Great for kids as well a nice big playground at the park. Saw some people just reading so nice quiet place as well.

A great place full of history that comes to life! The oldest still in use colonial building in the USA, and home to a number of historical items. A place where everyone of all ages can enjoy a great look back in time, and learn a great deal about how people lived in the colonies that became the United States. From how they made clothes and grew food, to tools and living spaces, as well as the weapons they used to defend themselves in battle. This is an awesome experience that I would highly recommend to all!! I enjoyed being there as a chaperone for my daughter's second grade class field trip, and I hope to go back again this Summer to check out more of what they have at this amazing how e of history! Located right on the Kennebec River in Augusta Maine, and easy to get into from the main thorough fares. Well worth the price of admission, currently 10.00$ for adults, stop by if you can and be ready to learn!
