Colonial Michilimackinac
Treasures from the past come to life at this 18th-century fort and fur trading village, reconstructed based on historic maps and more than 60 years of archaeological excavations. As you walk through the site, you are stepping back in time to 1781, when local and global forces uprooted the community as soldiers and civilians relocated to Mackinac Island. After six decades as a thriving economic hub, Michilimackinac came to an end. Historical interpreters representing voyageurs, British soldiers, and French-Canadian merchant families are stationed throughout the fort to answer your questions and perform demonstrations. The past and present blur into a fascinating and unmatched experience at Colonial Michilimackinac. Watch smoke billow from cannons, mortars and muskets and see residents prepare food and tend the gardens. At one of the longest ongoing archaeological excavations in North America, archaeologists are on site throughout the summer, pulling history from the soil, bit by bit.

We visited the fort last week with my children after having last been there when I was 5. We toured all the buildings. The kids seemed more interested in this fort vs Fort Mackinac. Watched the musket demonstration and my daughter participated.

A very well done historical interpretation. The reconstructed buildings allows visitors to get a real sense of life of soldiers and merchants during this time. I really enjoyed the opportunity to walk along the fort walls to get great views of the houses and gardens within the fort. The interpreters were very well versed on the history of the fort as well as aspects of their clothing and life at the fort. Well worth the trip!
