Love this place! I learned a lot, even though they are still putting it together. The best tour guides I have ever had. Highly recommend!
Nice place to spend couple of hours with kids and family. The place is packed with information for curious minds and also has a lot to see, to touch, to ask for younger ones. Special thanks to those who work there, guys really knew the history of the fort, shared interesting information about that time and traditions, answered all the questions. It was really lovely experience .
Worth taking the tour.
Very helpful staff
Informative
And an insight to the war between the
USA and the British .
Demo was great.
Cafe is a bargain.
Thanks Meradith and team.
Lovely experience. The guide was v. Enthusiastic and was thorough with his explanation of the fort and its history.
There was a guided portion and also time to roam the grounds on our own.
Lots of history here. Recommended.
Make sure you go to the kitchen to get a sample of the short breads! Yum
A must see site for anyone interested in the War of 1812. The site includes a recreation of the British Siege set-up and what the Fort would have looked like during the American occupation. Information at the Fort and museum include topics such as the siege of Fort Erie in 1814, medical instruments used at the time, indigenous contributions, the Fenian occupation, and artistic images of the ruins up to modern times. The staff are informative, knowledgeable, and kind.
