This pre-Civil War fort is one of Amelia Island's most unique historical sites. It is located inside a state park located at the northern end of the Island. The first week-end of each month, volunteers and the park rangers reenact life in 1864 when it was occupied by the Union troops. Speaking only in the language of the time, they demonstrate woodworking techniques, do laundry, cook foods of that era and fire the cannons
