Iconic Fort Mackinac opens for the 2025 season! Enjoy lunch or a snack at the Tea Room, take in the incredible view, and experience the boom of the cannon.
The cannon blasts, the rifles fire, the soldiers march and history comes alive. The oldest building in Michigan and 13 other historical structures boast exhibits explaining everything from military training and battles to medical treatments to family life within the fort.
More than just a military outpost, Fort Mackinac served as a home for soldiers and their families and eventually the headquarters for Mackinac National Park, where tourists to the island visited the great fortress on the bluff, much like they do today. #thisismackinac
