An outpost that grew into a fortress, Fort Niagara played an important role in the struggle to control North America. For more than 150 years, Fort Niagara protected a strategic point at the mouth of the Niagara River in Youngstown, NY. Four nations struggled to conquer it and thus control that critical water artery. Rare archival materials, expert commentary, and reenactments recount the history of the fort from its beginnings through modern times.
