A GOOD REASON TO GO

Brick fort & coastal marsh

A large masonry fort and surrounding salt-marsh landscape introduce Civil War history and changing military technology. Paths and exhibits make a good combination for a varied visit.

The red masonry walls of Fort Pulaski still show battle damage over 150 years later.
