There were
3 American forts built in Fort Wayne. The current fort is a replica of the one
constructed by Major John Whistler and his men during 1815 – 1816, & was the
last fort to stand at the junction of the St. Mary’s, St. Joseph and Maumee
Rivers. It was designed purely for defense against Native Americans, and could
be comfortably defended by a relatively small number of men. |
