Amherstburg has done a great job putting together historical information and preserving this site. Don't miss it or the beautiful flowers all along the river and next door.

I'm a history nut and was impressed with the amount of training the docents obviously had. Most of them appeared to be college age. They had a great working knowledge of the time period (1830's) the fort's daily life and running's as well as the artifacts and reproductions. This place is GREAT for kids. VERY hands on making history come alive. The museum was closed due to renovations but the other buildings were open with lots of friendly, costumed staff to answer questions. We are looking forward to going back to see the museum when the renovations have been completed.They also participate in the Explorer program for children. Our kids love going to the Canadian National Parks and participating in the program, collecting their dog tags as they go.

Very interesting vantage point of history, if you're a Yankee. No, seriously, we enjoyed hearing the very pleasant docent speak about the War of 1812 as told from a Canadian view point. The park is in a beautiful setting with a wide waterfront view. There are several buildings including a small museum. We stayed for the muzzle demonstration and looked around the barracks.

It's nice to walk along the waterside, but other than that its pretty uneventful. I suppose a cute place to take kids, but not really worth the drive from Windsor. A small museum and a few history reenactments. If you want a exciting reenactment festival go to the Renaissance festival in Holly Mi, or the River of Time in Bay City, Mi. If you do go to Amherestburg, check out Amherest pub, very cool!!

I have visited this historic site hundreds of times going back over 65 years to when I was a young lad who used to join dozens of others to toboggan on the slopes of the fortification. I would really prefer the old exhibits rather than the modernized displays that they have now since it takes away from the original feel. Enjoy coming here on the grounds for the various festivals related to the town of Amherstburg. You have got to visit this place.

The walk along the river was so calming and scenic. The people you meet on the way aree all so friendly. Everyone chats and answeres questions about their pretty town. Charming,Beautiful and can't wait to go again.

Wonderful place to visit with so much history to share. Both young and old visitors love checking out all of the exhibits and enjoying the beautiful grounds surrounding the fort.

A trip to Fort Maldon is always a treat. Lovely gardens and a nice stroll down to the river for a walk. A great place to picnic, A jewel in Amhurstberg's crown.

The town of Amherstburg is a little gem. Very quaint and charming. Amherstburg is also the home to Fort Malden where part of the war of 1812 was fought. As others have pointed out, the Fort is situated on the lovely Detroit River just south of Windsor. It is an idyllic setting. When we were there, we witnessed several re-enactments of life in the early 1800's . We were impressed with the staff who showed us how the Fort operated in these years. The buildings have been restored and they have many original pieces of equipment. Also check out the wineries in the area.

Great place to see 1812 history. Dress up like a soldier. Eat old fashion bread, butter and pea soup. Even let you make it. If you like history you will like Fort Malden
