:: Take Advantage of Fort Scott! Promises made, promises broken! A town attacked at dawn! Thousands made homeless by war! Soldiers fighting settlers! Each of these stories is a link in the chain of events that encircled Fort Scott from 1842-1873. All of the site's 20 historic structures, its parade ground, and its five acres of restored tallgrass prairie bear witness to this era when the United States was forged from a young divided republic into a united and powerful transcontinental nation. Fort Scott is a national historic landmark. Take a self-guided walking tour of the Fort and relive history as you walk acres of restored facilities. While you're here, visit National Cemetary #1 or stroll the halls of Mercy Health Center and view the Gordon Parks exhibit. This unique combination of photography and poetry create a rare display of Gordon's most prominant work. Also, don't miss out on the Gordon Parks Center for Culture and Diversity at Fort Scott Community College. Take a walk down historic Main Street to view turn-of-the-century architecture, then shop at any of the various unique downtown shops! So much to see, so little time?
