While driving out to the wildseed farm, my husband and I noticed people walking around, what seemed to be an outside museum. Curious, we stopped and were taken aback by the beauty, and the story behind the original fort. Only wish we had shown up there when they did the reactment of life at the fort.

We had a delightful tour from the man who takes care of the fort. There is no entry fee. We had our well-behaved dog with us and he welcomed her. (I, also, had a guide dog in training.) The tour included a complete history of the fort from beginning to present day. At the end I mentioned that I appreciated that my pet was welcome and asked if that is normally the case (We were there on a very slow day.) He said that yes, dogs are welcome at the fort. I would note that your dog should be well-mannered and to please pick up after your dog should the need arise. Please help keep Fort Martin Scott dog-friendly!

This old army fort site adjoins the under construction Texas Ranger museum. We found the fort interesting - a personable docent helps with history. Only one original building - others are being reconstructed. No admission charge although donations are appreciated. Well Worth a half hour visit.

Fort Martin Scott is a restored Army outpost located along 290 East in Fredericksburg, Texas. It is a self guided tour of the first established military post which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Former Texas Rangers Association is building their Heritage Center museum and hall of fame- visitors center and pavilion next door. Soon you will be able to visit both. I suggest taking this tour in the Spring or Fall due to extreme heat in summer. You are walking around the fort and buildings .

only one original building is left, a pile of rocks or some cactus to show where the original buildings stood. didn't know that touring of the building is only until 3 pm. couldn't look inside, curator said I could look through the windows if I wanted, but you couldn't really see anything interesting. glad it was free. that's all its worth.

I stood there immersed in all the beauty of the area and felt the German and Comanches become one at this historic fort. All of the buildings except the stockade are rebuilt. It has a quality I can't describe and I felt the struggle of the new settlers of the area and their triumph of coming to peace with the comanches.

Nice self guided walk around. Watch out for the fire ants. Some original. ... Some restored. If you like history of the region. It would be of interest to you.

We stopped by here after a run out to Luckenbach. It was closed for the day, so we just walked the loop, read the signs, and looked around. We were the only ones there, so finding the geocache there was no problem at all. There are beautiful trees, and some neat historical buildings. Will go back again someday when they are open to get a little more info. Stop by if you like history.

Fort Martin Scott is the best tourism deal in Fredericksburg. It's FREE. If you like history then be sure to stop by. Fort Martin Scott began as a Texas Ranger camp and evolved into a US Army Post. Some of the buildings have been reconstructed to give you an idea of life in the post. We were there at 9 am on a Friday and all of the buildings were open to walk into. There are signs along the tour route to explain the building and to give you a little history of the area. In the future it will be joined with the Texas Ranger Heritage Center next door and more buildings will be reconstructed. So in a few years, I will go back to see how it's changed.Please stop. If you have fun then leave them a donation.

The buildings are "open" to look into, the signs give a great history of the fort so that you can learn about the life and times of the fort and it's people. A quick stop along the Texas trail.
