About this place
What is Fort Stanwix National Monument?
Fort Stanwix was a colonial fort in present-day Rome, New York. Its construction commenced on August 26, 1758, under the direction of British General John Stanwix, but was not completed until about 1762. The bastion fort was built to guard a portage known as the Oneida Carry during the French and Indian War. Fort Stanwix National Monument, a reconstructed structure built by the National Park Service, now occupies the site.
