Discover what life was like at Fort Loudoun, the western most point of the British Empire during the French and Indian War, as reenactors bring the fort back to life.

See soldiers and Cherokee going about their day, training, firing cannons, working about the fort, and demonstrating professions of the time. There will be blacksmiths working the forge, a surgeon in the infirmary, and soldiers living in the barracks. Be sure to visit the Cherokee at Tuskegee located outside the fort gates. Bring the family to learn about life on the frontier and how the British and Cherokee worked together against the French.

The Fort will be open from 10:00 AM-5:00 PM on Saturday, and 10:00 AM-2:00 PM on Sunday.
