Fort Scott tourism, Kansas – Beautiful Pleasures, Undiscovered Treasures
From 1842 and 1853, Fort Scott was established and garrisoned by the U.S. Army. As part of a stretch of forts stretching from Minnesota to Louisiana, Fort Scott was one point in a chain of fortifications to protect the Permanent Indian Frontier. Fort Scott was also located on the Frontier Military Road built in 1836-1845 linking Fort Leavenworth with Fort Gibson, Oklahoma. The US Army abandoned the fort in 1853 and the buildings were acquired by local settlers at auction.
Between 1854 and 1861 the populace of Fort Scott suffered from the violence occuring between the clash between free-state abolitionists and pro-slavery proponents. The era described as Bleeding Kansas described the murder, arson and mayhem committed by both sides during the fight to determine whether Kansas would be admitted into the Union as a free or slave state.
Despite admission as a free state in 1861 the violence of the Bleeding Kansas period continued during the Civil War. Fort Scott was re-established as the Union Army district headquarters which included the first African-American unit for the Union begining service in 1863.
Following the Civil War, Fort Scott became one of the largest cities in eastern Kansas rivaling Kansas City multiple times as the largest railroad hub west of the Mississippi. Fort Scott also became home to 3 brick manufacturers-some of which were used to pave the Indianapolis Speedway and in construction of the Panama Canal not including many of the roads and homes of Fort Scott. Agriculture, medium industry and insurance have also played a large role in the development of Fort Scott.
The Fort was restored in 1978 and was designated a National Historic Site. It continues as the centerpiece of our historic downtown where we have just completed a $2 million Streetscape Project which included period street lights and park benches to our shaded sidewalks.
Interesting Fort Scott vacation places to tour include:
- Fort Scott National Historic Site
- 1873 Old Congregational Church
- Gordon Parks Center
- Narrated Trolley Tours
Also in the area – Kansas attractions:
- Mine Creek Battlefield State Historic Site
- Bourbon State Fishing Lake and Wildlife Area
Eastern Kansas vacation is nationally reknown for its Fort Scott National Historic Site and its National Cemetery. But, the community that was built around a frontier military fort well over 160 years ago is a thriving community rich in historic heritage, unique shopping opportunities, industry, culture, education and outdoor recreation. Recognized for its small town hospitality, Fort Scott and its residents are even the proud owners of three World Records!
