Inside the stately stone walls it’s a different time.
The cannon blasts, the rifles fire, the soldiers march and history comes alive. The oldest building in Michigan and 13 other historical structures boast exhibits explaining everything from military training and battles to medical treatments to family life within the fort.
More than just a military outpost, Fort Mackinac served as a home for soldiers and their families and eventually the headquarters for Mackinac National Park, where tourists to the island visited the great fortress on the bluff, much like they do today.
Live Programs and Tours
Demonstrations and tours by costumed interpreters are scheduled throughout the day.
Exhibits
All fourteen buildings in the fort are restored and open to the public. They are furnished with period settings highlighting the building’s particular function or a themed exhibit. Special exhibits include:
Mackinac, An Island Famous in These Regions on the second floor of the Soldier’s’ Barracks presents the full history of Mackinac Island.
Military Medicine at Mackinac: 1780-1895 in the Post Hospital explores medical care at the fort and changing nineteenth-century medical practices.
Kids’ Quarters features hands-on displays and interactive games.
Audiovisual Programs
Heritage of Mackinac is featured in the Post Commissary, providing an overview history of Mackinac. It repeats every 20 minutes.

Most people associate stunning fall colors in the US with New England, but completely overlook another incredible option: the Midwest!
And within the Midwest, I honestly think Michigan has some of the best fall colors in the country. (There, I said it!)
This photo, for example, isn’t from New England, but rather is from Mackinac Island, a popular summer resort island in Michigan. While Mackinac isn’t known for its fall color (its delicious fudge and ban on cars are way more famous), there are nevertheless lots of colors to enjoy this time of year.
So I guess my point is... don’t write off the Midwest when it comes to fall color! (Also, expect lots more fall color photos in the coming weeks 😬.)
Would you have ever guessed this photo was taken in Michigan? Also, what else would you like to know about Mackinac Island? I’ll share more info about this quirky spot in my next post.

Spent a full day on Mackinac Island, mostly at the Grand Hotel, plus some Fort Mackinac to spice things up.

A great stop on our Circle Tour was quaint Mackinac Island, famed for its carless roads, long history, fudge & enduring charm. Odd seeing roads without Amazon trucks.
.
Our two days began with a “Mighty Mac” ferry to the island on a moody, cold & windswept morning. Bonus points for the under the bridge history lesson.
.
Weather warmed, making the Fort Mackinac visit & island bike tour comfortable. Great sights, meals & a sconce from the Grand Hotel Wine Bar that somehow caught my eye.
.
The tour rolls on!

Decided to tour Fort Mackinac while I was on the island...can see why it was of strategic importance, the view of the island itself and the Straits Of Mackinac is incredible. Can see the Mackinac Bridge fairly well too. Was pretty cool to get a glimpse of history and such a good view.

Walking up the steep hill to Fort Mackinac is worth it for the view of the harbor. We’ve been so lucky with beautiful weather each day too. I definitely don’t want to go home tomorrow! #mackinacisland #mighigan #fortmackinac

One of the most surprising things I’ve learned about Mackinac Island is that it was once the site of a national park.
In 1875, after Fort Mackinac no longer served a strategic military function, President Grant signed a bill creating Mackinac National Park - surprisingly enough, the second national park in the country after Yellowstone.
Mackinac National Park, which included Fort Mackinac, Arch Rock, and other scenic features of this remarkable place, remained a national park only until 1895 when the War Department elected to abandon Mackinac Island and transfer park ownership to the State of Michigan. Thereafter, Mackinac State Park became the first state park in the country.
Stereoscope pictures of the park from the 1890s depict images that tourists would have seen and enjoyed 130 years ago.
I think this kind of stuff is cool. Ok, not necessarily cool, but at least a lot of fun.
