Fort York National Historic Site

There for Indigenous Arts Festival. Was a great location for a fantastic educational experience! Fort exhibits being open was added bonus for many.

Fort York National Historic Site is History Personified!!
Go back in time to the War of 1812 between the British and the Americans!!
Toronto then York (hence the name Fort York), defending our land against invading Americans crossing Lake Ontario!

Much to be seen and enjoyed by tourists and Torontonians alike!!
Come spend the day going back to the future!!
You won't be disappointed!!

I went to the indigenous festival. It was great, and I was amazed of the discoveries theh have had but never advertised nor credit given to them. I hope they can be more involved in the community and teach us the secrets of the nature and how to respect and appreciate it.

We are visiting from the UK & were looking for a historical interest place to visit. This place is really clean, well laid out & super interesting from a historical perspective! There are multiple buildings with a range of artefacts, photographs and displays with very fine attention to detail.

There was even a historian ‘Emily’ who was very knowledgeable & helpful with information about the site. Dressed in costume she was friendly, providing lots of descriptive detail about the wider Canadian / US history. I thoroughly recommend this place a visit.

I love this place!!! It is in a bit of an upheaval at the moment due to the pedestrian bridge being built, but I have high hopes for its return to greatness. It is a comfortable, almost secluded spot from all the city noise, offers a taste of nature, mature trees and a wonderful place to run the pooch.

All I would ask is, respect this place dog owners, clean up after Rover and fill in his holes if he is so inclined to dig.
