À quoi s'attendre
1
Fort Mackinac
This is Mackinac. The cannon blasts, the rifles fire, the soldiers march and history comes alive. The oldest building in Michigan and 13 other historical structures boast exhibits explaining everything from military training and battles to medical treatments to family life within the fort. More than just a military outpost, Fort Mackinac served as a home for soldiers and their families and eventually the headquarters for Mackinac National Park, where tourists to the island visited the great fortress on the bluff, much like they do today.

The Richard & Jane Manoogian Mackinac Art Museum
Be inspired. Nowhere else does such a rare and exceptional collection of Mackinac-related art and photography come together to tell Mackinac’s story. In complement to the natural beauty of Mackinac Island, The Richard and Jane Manoogian Mackinac Art Museum allows visitors to experience fine and decorative arts inspired by Mackinac through the ages. One of the most diverse art museums in the region, the museum’s collection offers no shortage of beauty and history – from hand-beaded Native American garments and 17th and 18th-century maps of the Great Lakes, to one-of-a-kind pieces from the height of Mackinac Island’s Victorian era. Original photographs from the mid-19th to the mid-20th century present the beauty of Mackinac as captured by the camera’s eye. Featured are the works of William H. Gardiner, including dozens of his famed early-twentieth century hand-tinted views. #thisismackinac

Biddle House
A Time of Change. Step into the home of Agatha and Edward Biddle, merchants who moved in around 1830. This was a time of change, and the 1830s were critical to the Biddles for another reason: as an Anishnaabek woman, Agatha and other indigenous people witnessed their culture subjected to immense changes. The decade transformed the Anishnaabek, linking old ways with Michigan’s modern indigenous culture. The continuing story of the Anishnaabek of northern Michigan is not always a happy one. It is a story of battles won and lost, promises made and broken, and cultures repressed and resurgent. Most importantly, the story in which the Biddle family played a role is one that continues today. This new exhibit, created in conjunction with tribal partners, explores that story and how it still resonates on Mackinac Island and throughout northern Michigan.#thisismackinac

We had a good time. They sounded the cannon and the rifles while we were there. It’s kept up very nice and had more buildings than I thought were there. It was very interesting and informative. There are a lot of original items and some films and reenactments. They even have a little cafe there and a snack cart. There are public restrooms in case you were wondering. You have a pretty great view from the top of the fort looking down on the downtown and Marquette Park

Thank you for the wonderful review! Many people are surprised by the size and scope of Fort Mackinac once you head inside. We're glad you were able to enjoy some demonstrations, and the views of downtown, the park, and the Straits are hard to beat. We hope to see you again soon!

The fort is well-maintained and very informative. There are many rooms that are set up as they would have been in the 18th and 19th centuries, and placards explaining how people lived and worked and fought during the time the fort was inhabited. War of 1812 is not one I remembered a lot about, but I learned quite a bit from the exhibits here.
