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.

This was my second visit. The first was last fall so some of the natives in dress had some harvest items and things were a little more colorful pertaining to that season. late July, The scenery was gorgeous and so were the gardens. they’re also were some students working the dig, actively and profusely in the heat. My daughter made a comment to her college friend that we were traveling with, and said ‘that could be us someday!’ it was really great to come through a second time and enjoy the buildings again and all the exhibits. I was sad that there was nobody outback as I left through the back gates. I feel this is the most important part because that is where the history started. And if you don’t promote it now, when will we really ever recognize the roots of this nation? exiting through the back gates, was the best part of the exhibit last fall. Because of the native woman standing there and because of her dress and how much she embodied the spirit of that camp. She wanted to show me everything and I was interested. Consider funding to always have somebody or two, there. To educate, or just stand as a symbol, After walking through that British camp.

Thank you for the incredible review, and we're thrilled you were able to visit us again after a visit last year. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words about our Native American interpreter and your experience with her last year. We do have a staff member assigned to that role, and she works typically 5 days a week. Interpreting the history of the Anishnaabek people of the Straits of Mackinac is incredibly important to the story of Michilimackinac, and something we do not take lightly. We hope you are able to visit us again soon!
