Fort Hartsuff State Historical Park, Burwell

Really enjoyed my visit to Fort Hartsuff. Nine of the buildings are the original historic buildings, 1874-1881. Unlike most other fort's of the same era, wood was not available for construction, so grout was used instead, and they're still standing today. No employees were available, but all of the fort buildings were opened for visitation, with maps, and access to orientation film for visitors. Highly recommended.

A wonderful hands on museum experience where an easy walk around the parade grounds gets you into 9 original buildings made of limestone. The insides were clean and some of the antiquities I had never seen before. You really can feel how it must have felt to be a soldier in the 1870's. From bread making to the root cellar to the quartermaster and hospital. For me, it is better than Ft Robinson but that's my opinion. This place needs to be preserved.
