Happy first day of spring! ☀

The countdown to #FortHenry's reopening in May is on and we couldn't be more excited! Get ready for an unforgettable adventure as we bring history to life with our unique programming and events.

Stay tuned for updates, tickets, and mark your calendars for a summer full of fun at our historic site!

Originally formed in 1938, the Fort Henry Guard's

Originally formed in 1938, the Fort Henry Guard's mission is to interpret the lives of British soldiers stationed at the Fort. Nowadays, our team is made up of Canadian university and college students - no modern military experience required!

Through dedicated training and discipline, these students master 19th-century military drills and tactics, so you can experience history in its full glory!

But wait, there's more! To create an authentic picture of life at the Fort, our Domestic Interpreters bring to life the roles of soldiers' wives, cooks, school teacher and other non-military personnel.

Join us this May as we reopen for the season and step back in time to 1867 and become a part of history! 💥 #FHCelebrates85

Can you believe that the #FortHenry Guard is turni

Can you believe that the #FortHenry Guard is turning 85 this year?! And that's not all - we're also celebrating the 30th anniversary of women joining the Guard!

We're so proud to commemorate the hard work and dedication of all the amazing guards over the years, and especially to recognize the incredible women who have made history as part of the Fort Henry Guard.

Did you know Fort Henry had its' first female Guards in 1993? Since then, they have been an integral part of its fabric. Over the years, these amazing women have risen through the ranks to become Senior Non Commissioned Officers, and some have even achieved the rank of Captain, the Senior Fort Henry Guard on parade.

Huzzah to this milestone and to the many more years of preserving history and inspiring our community! 🎉
