This is without a doubt of one of the must-see historic treasures of 4 nations. Starting with the Native American, then French, then British, then United States, then Britain again until 1815 when it again rolled back to the United States' control, becaming the longest continually occupied military establishment in the U.S. It is the oldest existing stone structure on the Great Lakes.The facility and staff is exceptional and the daily reinactments are awesome. Their scheduled events are mind blowingly (is that a word?) wonderful. I can't say enough. If you are anywhere around Niagara Falls, besides the Falls themselves, you must see Old Fort Niagara.

If this magnificently restored old Fort could talk it would have lots to tell.reenactors brings the past to the present .Evryone interested in the ehistory of North America should spend time visiting this fort located at the mouth of the Niagara River at Lake Ontario.

A great place to explore Western New York history. The Park is extensive with a lot of facilities, but we spent our time at the Old Fort. They do a nice job of explaining the buildings and grounds and the self-guided tour pamphlet is sufficient for general information about the grounds. The museum does a wonderful job of exploring history of the area, the context of the fort’s use and the situations that led to the battles occurring in the area. There is a short film that gives an overview for those who do not want to look at the displays or explore more details. We spent several hours looking at exhibits and wandering the grounds. One caution, although the fort is open until 5:00, the museum and all restroom facilities are closed by 4:15 or 4:30. The nearest restroom facility we could find was at the boat launch area of the park.

We attend the French & Indian War weekend as participants - living historians. We have a wonderful time showing the public how things were done in the 18th Century. We get a lot of excellent questions from the visitors. The fort and fort staff are very friendly and helpful to the reenactors and the public. The visitor's center is excellent - wonderful displays as well as a well stocked giftshop. There are a couple of places within the fort to get a sandwich or icecream so the visitors do not go hungry. We as living historians are cooking our own food to show what we ate and how we prepared it. I am a historical lace weaver and my husband is a piper - there is plenty of time between the battle and other reenactment scenerios for us to show off what we love to do. Inside the fort there are a number of 18th Century Sutlers [stores] that have things that we reenactors need and things for the visitors who are collectors. There is a ramped entrance to the fort so it is possible for wheelchair users to get around - there is only a small part of cobbled walkway that they may need assist with. Love it and have been going every year since 2001.

This historic fort has not been abandoned. Supported by many dedicated individuals, it puts on tours (Christmas coming up!) and recreations that are so real, you feel you are back in colonial America. This summer, the Fort co-sponsored a 4th of July concert with the Buffalo Philharmonic that featured American composers. It was literally a stellar performance- open air, under the stars, capped off with a spectacular fireworks display above the ramparts of the Old Fort! This is a tourist attraction not to be missed.

What a breath of fresh air THIS was, after spending a weekend touring so many gaudy, plastic, falling-apart attractions in Niagara Falls! My wife made sure to grab a self-guiding tour brochure before we left the welcome center, which made all the difference. I saw a few reviews complaining about how you're just walking through a bunch of old buildings without any context; with the brochure, my wife was able to act as tour guide, explaining the purpose behind each building, when and why it was built, who stayed there and what they did, and so on. It actually turned into a fun scavenger hunt, as we darted around the park trying to find the next building on our list.One weird thing: We saw a group of kids and harassed-looking parents doing a "fun" activity where they were given fake guns and trained on how to be a soldier regime. I say "fun" because they spent nearly an hour on this stuff, and in the meantime the parents had to just follow them around and watch. By the time it was over, it was closing time, and I suspect the parents never actually got a chance to tour the fort. Something to keep in mind if you're bringing little ones.There's a museum inside the welcome center, too, which helps give further context to all the cool buildings you're about to see. One of the highlights is the remnants of an ENORMOUS American flag that used to hang over the fort. Plus, unlike the museums we toured in Niagara Falls proper, the exhibits weren't all falling apart.

Lots of walking but what beautiful scenery & buildings.History of 1812 war with the American, French & English. Walk into a very cool drawbridge. Had people dressed in period clothes walking around. Enjoyed the musket shooting & the young man was affable & knowledgeable. The chateau showed how the people lived in those days & the smokehouse still had that wonderful smell.It was so beautiful looking across the water to Canada & being on Lake Ontario.

We had a conference in Niagara Falls, NY. The conference arrainged for us to have dinner and a ghost tour of the fort by latern. Because the meal was representitive of what was served historically at the fort, it was a little sparse; but it was still a great experience. The best part was touring the fort after dark with the guides. They wove the history of the fort into the ghost stories they were telling. The fort itself sets right on the water and is well preserved and great for pictures.

We had great weather to enjoy the beauty surrounding us at Old Fort Niagara. My son LOVED the history and the weapon demonstrations
