fort gibson historic site印象

The large structure that you will see is actually the stockade and not the fort proper. It's a good tour and is accurate. Jack O is in error. The fort was not messed up by the locals. It was build with untreated, unpainted local lumber. So Jack...don't not opine what you do not know.

If you enjoy old forts, you'll like Ft. Gibson. Jefferson Davis served as an adjutant here at the original fort. The WPA rebuilt the buildings now visible between 1935 and 1938. There is a nice 1-lane bridge just north of the fort and a parralell bridge for trains. Scenic little town, too. At the dam just a ways from Ft Gibson, we saw a guy land a 4 ft (at least) spoonbill! Lots of pelicans and cormorants below the dam too for bird watching.

My mother was born in Ft. Gibson so I grew up coming here as a kid. It is a neat place to visit. Although now there is a charge for coming where is it used to be free. But there is a lot of history here and just a neat place to learn about Ft. Gibson, the oldest town in Oklahoma!

The old fort is a great place to introduce children to Oklahoma's rich history! I visited the fort in my childhood and have taken my children throughout the years. The fort has been undergoing an extensive refurbishment. We can't wait for the new opening and to see the improvements!
-
it is a rebuilt structure, as many of the historic sights in Oklahoma seem to be, which is a shame, as they have such a large number of historic sites available, too bad the folks of the area messed everything up...

The history of this place amased me I had no idea of the importance of the fort.Some of the officers quarters are original buildings.The fort was located on three rivers.

A very nicely kept piece of Oklahoma history. They have several special events throughout the year. A must see if you are in the area.

They were in the middle of re-doing the garrison, so we weren't able to see that. However, the workers there were very friendly, helpful giving info (even looking up info on an iPhone) taking time to talk, etc. they've done very well on a limited budget.

Not much happening at the site, but the kids enjoyed running around the Fort and there is something to learn. There are opportunities nearby for camping, fishing, eating (Ft Gibson and Muskogee), etc. The right time of year would make this a better excursion, I would prefer the fall or spring. The Batfish Submarine memorial is close enough to double the learning and adventure for the kids.

The fort is spread out over two hills. Unfortunately during our visit the main fort was under construction. It looked like new logs were being installed. There are lots of structures to explore.
