This is a reenactment of the Siege of Fort Boonesborough from 1778. The Fort founded by Daniel Boone in April 1775 was attacked in September 1778 by a party of over 400 Native Americans of mixed tribes supported by British officers. This multi day siege failed and the fort survived. We have Saturday and Sunday battle re-enactments at 2:00pm.  Come early and spend the day learning about 18th century life in Kentucky.
