Old Fort Steuben Reconstruction (1787), OH
This fort was built shortly after the Revolution for the protection of surveyors of the Northwest Territory. It is 200 feet by 200 feet and had an encampment of more than 150 officers and men. It has been fully restored and the buildings, which include quarters, a hospital, and a gun shop, host reenactments, demonstrations, and tours. Archaeologists have recovered all kinds of items from the grounds, such as buttons and clay pipes.
