Gut zu wissen
- Viele Forts sind Stätten des National Park Service oder von Parks Canada: Öffnungszeiten und Eintritt vorher auf deren Seite prüfen.
- An Wochenenden gibt es oft Vorführungen in historischer Kleidung – ein Blick in den Veranstaltungskalender lohnt sich.
- Manche Forts liegen auf Inseln und sind nur per Fähre erreichbar, etwa Fort Sumter oder Fort Jefferson.
