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 a great place to visit . Plan on spending a few hours. They do reenactments of cannons and period costumes are worn through out.

Great opportunity to experience life in a British frontier fort of the late 1700s. The enactors were very knowledgeable about the history of the area. It was like taking a step back in time. This is the site of the longest ongoing archaeological dig in the U.S. and maybe in North America. You can watch the excavations while experiencing the flavor of history.

Thank you for the amazing review! We work hard to make Michilimackinac as authentic an experience as possible while showing what life was like on the British frontier in the 1770s/1780s. We hope you visit us again soon!

I really enjoyed this stop. We stopped at both Fort Mackinac and Michilimackinac, and I would say I liked the latter better. Michilimackinac was both a French and then British fort, prior to the British burning it down to move to Mackinac Island. They have done archeological excavations every summer since 1959, and it is still an active dig site. The buildings are recreations of what the fort looked like. The living history staff are awesome, and a huge reason I enjoyed this visit so much. There are a few exhibits underground where you can see original building foundation ruins, and a great exhibit on archeology.
