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.

We learned all about the history of Fort Mackinac! We loved their kids interactive section and I also appreciated some caffeine in their Tea Room!
I didn’t pay much attention in history class growing up, so now ai make up for it and love relearning any kind of history! Fort Mackinac did a great job explaining the past!
The fort was founded during the American Revolution. The British occupied the island in 1780, but then the Americans took control in 1796. However, the British captured the fort in July of 1812 during the first land engagement of the War of 1812. In 1814, the Americans tried to recapture the fort in a very bloody battle, but lost. The Americans were given Fort Mackinac back after the war.

Built in 1780 by the British during the American Revolution Fort Mackinac served as an important spot in American History. Captured by the Americans in 1796 it ended up being the location for the first land battle in the War of 1812 where it was captured by the British.
It now serves as a living history museum and archeological site with some of the best views on the Island! #mackinacisland #fortmackinac #americanrevolution #livingmuseum #museum #archeology #mackinacislandstatepark

This postcard depicts Anne's Tablet, a memorial to the 19th-century author Constance Fenimore Woolson on Mackinac Island, Michigan (the USA).
The Art Nouveau sculptural installation, created by William Ordway Partridge, was erected in 1919. It consists of a bronze plaque set into a stone structure with benches. The tablet is a memorial to Woolson, who spent her summers on Mackinac Island as a girl and set her most famous novel, Anne, there. It is located on a bluff just east of Fort Mackinac and offers a scenic view of the area.

Vacation Day 4: Mackinac Island, Michigan. (FYI, it's pronounced MackiNAW). There are no cars on the island — the only modes of transportation are walking, biking, horseback, or horse-drawn carriage. It's a neat step back in time to the late 1700s and 1800s (although with a modern Starbucks!) We rode a ferry to and from the island and went underneath the Mackinac Bridge (it's 5 miles long and separates Lake Michigan and Lake Huron). We couldn't go inside the Grand Hotel because there was a political policy conference, but it did look grand from the outside. We did a carriage tour through Mackinac Island State Park, explored the historic Fort Mackinac, and bought some iconic handcrafted fudge. After heading back to the mainland, we got a late dinner from a fun dog-themed hotdog place, including a side dish of "Yooper Sushi".
